Best Answer

The Book of Exodus in the Old Testament is part of the Jewish torah or law. It also contains the history of the Exodus or exit of the people of Israel from Egypt and as such is to be regarded as a historical work. In Hebrew it consists largely of prose, although some parts are poetry, such as the celebratory songs after the children of Israel safely crossed the sea in front of the Egyptian army.
