The Book of Jasher: The J. H. Parry Text

by Joseph Lumpkin

Overview

History has given us two very different books by the same name. One of these could be the book of records mentioned in the Holy Bible. The Book Of Jasher, or Sefer Ha Yashar, is referred to in the books of Joshua and Second Samuel."Behold it is written in the Book of Jasher."--II Samuel, i. 18"Is not this written in the Book of Jasher?"--Joshua, x. 13.The value of The Book of Jasher is seen in the large quantity of additional detail revealed in the period between divine creation and the time of Joshua's leadership over Israel when the Israelites enter into the land of Canaan. The Books of Jasher includes details about the antediluvian patriarchs, the institution of the Ten Commandments, the establishment of the priesthood, angels, watchers, the flood, the tower of Babel, and many other events mentioned in the Bible. The tales are expanded and infused with detail not previously available.
