The Old English Exodus collects J.R.R. Tolkien's text and translation of the Old English poem that is known as Exodus. They are accompanied by a commentary that has been produced by editing his notes for a series of informal lectures delivered to a specialist class in Oxford in the 1930s and 1940s.

Although dated 1981, the book was actually published in January 1982. 3,000 copies were printed and it has not been reprinted.[1]
