The Book of Jubilees or The Little Genesis: Translation

The Book of Jubilees—also known as The Little Genesis—was translated from four Ethiopic manuscripts. It contains a fascinating variety of material not found in the Bible, including details concerning the Fall, Cain and Abel, angels, the Flood, the Tower of Babel, Jacob’s visions, the Messianic Kingdom, and many other subjects. R. H. Charles’ commentary diverges from the traditional belief that Jubilees was written during the first-century, and instead he asserts that it was written at the same time as the Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs. This volume is intended for scholars and theological students.
