The term Exodus refers to the going out of the children of Israel from Egypt recorded in the second book of The Bible of the same name (i.e. Exodus). Since it refers to 'going out' or exiting a place it has been given on occasions a common everyday usage with that connotation.

The word exodus is from the Greek. When the Old Testament was translated into the Greek version, called the Septuagint, during the reign of Ptolemy, the second book in the Torah was called exodus, meaning exit or "way out" [of Egypt]. The book of Exodus is from the writings of Moses.
