The book of Exodus is part of the 'Pentateuch', which literally means 'five scrolls', or five books that form a single whole. They are ordered in the following way: 'Genesis', 'Exodus', 'Leviticus', 'Numbers', and 'Deuteronomy'. The Jewish name for these five books is 'Torah'. Thus, 'Exodus' represents the second book in the Hebrew Bible.

The word "exodus" is yetsi'ah (יציאה), however, this is not the name of the second book of the Bible. In Hebrew, Jewish writings do not have titles, as we know them in English. Instead, the first significant word of the book is used as a title. Therefore, the second book of the Bible is called Shemot (שמות), which means "names". If you look at Exodus 1:1, the first significant word is "Names."
