Answ. Because it is not expressly set down, mens conjectures thereabouts are various. fSome think that it was the book of the wars of God, mentioned, Num. 21. 14. Or the book of Jasher, mentioned 2 Sam. 1. 18. which they suppose to be one and the same book. gOthers, that it was a book then extant, but now lost. The notes in the former English translation take it to be the book of the law: meaning thereby, as I take it, this very book of Exodus. So do hother judicious Expositors take it. This exposition carieth most probability.
