The books of Genesis, Jubilees and Jasher contain basically the same narrative, which is fascinating in and of itself. However, the latter two also include several striking deviations from Genesis which are quite revealing from a biblical standpoint. It is not only our hope that comparing these three texts in this way will give a new and better grasp of the Genesis narrative, but also give opportunity to form more informed conclusions about these books’ relative places in history.
We will work our way through Genesis by grouping each of its 50 Chapters with the concurrent chapter or section of the other two books (first Jubilees and then Jasher). For example, Genesis 46 will be followed by Jubilees 45:1-4 and then Jasher 55 before moving on to Genesis 47. There is also commentary before selected sections of the latter two books. As an added bonus, we have included a free copy of the PDF version. The three texts are color-coded for additional ease of use.
Excerpts from the Book of Genesis are taken from the Revised Geneva Translation of the Holy Bible (©2020 Five Talents Audio, used by permission). Excerpts from the Book of Jubilees are taken from the R.H. Charles’ 1913 translation (Clarenden Press). And excerpts from the Book of Jasher are taken from M.M. Noah’s 1839 “Sepher haYasher” version, which is widely regarded by scholars as the only authentic extant translation.
May God richly bless your experience in listening to this book.
