The Aggadah is today recorded in the Midrash and the Talmud. In the Midrash, the aggadic and halakhic material are compiled as two distinct collections: The Aggadic Midrashim, generally, are explanatory aggadah, deriving the "sermonic implications" from the biblical text. The Halakhic Midrashim derive the laws from the text.

From Exodus 12 the midrash was continued without interruption as far as Exodus 33:19, i.e. to the conclusion of the chief laws of the book, although there are many narrative portions scattered through this section whose midrash belongs properly to the aggadah. Furthermore, many aggadot are included in the legal sections as well.
