The Book of Jubilees
translated by R. H. Charles
The Book of Jubilees, or, as it is sometimes called, The Little Genesis, purports to be a revelation given by God to Moses through the medium of an angel and contains a history, divided up into "jubilee periods" of 49 years, from creation to the coming of Moses. Although the actual narrative of events is only carried down to Moses's birth and early career, its author envisages the events of a later time and in particular certain events of special interest at the time he wrote, which was probably in the latter years of the 2nd century B.C. This work, though containing one or two passages of an apocalyptic character, is quite unlike the typical apocalypses. It is largely based upon the historical narratives in Genesis and Exodus, interspersed with legends and emphasizing certain legal practices (such as the strict observance of the Sabbath, circumcision, etc.). The author's main object is to inculcate a reform in the regulation of the calendar and festivals in place of the lunar calendar, which he condemns. He proposes to substitute a solar calendar consisting of 12 months and containing 364 days. The result of such a system is to make all festivals, except the Day of Atonement, fall on a Sunday--a radical idea for its day. With notes clarifying the translation, this is an important text for students of the origins of Christianity and Essene teachings.

Reading this book, explains some things left out of the canonized Biblical Books. There is also a running timetable. Towards the end, several things were clarified. The lamb was to be slaughtered, towards evening, on the 14th day, of the first month. Then the lamb's blood was used on the doorposts, and lintel, of the doorway, on the first third of the 15th. The new day began at sundown. Jesus, as the Lamb, was crucified on the 14th, then hurriedly taken down and placed in the garden tomb, before sundown, since the Passover day wouldn't have allowed any work to be performed. His blood became the blood on the doorposts, and lintel, as he was the door to eternal salvation. Just a side thought here, when the blood was placed on the lintel, it most likely dripped to the ground. Completing the head wrists and feet of Jesus.Most people accept that Jesus was crucified on a Friday and rose on a Sunday. I'm of the belief that he was crucified on the 14th, a Wednesday and placed in the tomb before sundown.Was in the tomb Thursday, Friday, and rose on Saturday, the third day, the Sabbath.
Anyhow, this was an informative book, that gives an interesting account of the history of the Hebrews.

The Book of Jubilees edition by RH Charles Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
This book filled in the gaps in Genesis and Exodus. A great read for those searching for the truth about Yahuah. May every man and woman be blessed on their respective journeys.
There are some typographical errors, but if you can over look this, it is a very informative read. I first read this book as a teenager because it was in my grandfather's library. He was a theologian, as was my father.
This is a good book; a translation. Historically, the Book of Jubilees was claimed to have been revealed to Moses but some claim that the book was simply a copy of the original Books of Genesis as found in the common Bible. Some label ancient books with similar stories as pseudepigrapha, material not suitable for inclusion in religious books.
The Books of Jubilees, details the celebration of every Jubilee (49 years) since creation to Moses's adult life; about 2410 years. There is a lot of detail in The Book of Jubilees and I wonder how the ancient authors could have had such access to personal lives of those times. Its a good read for those interested in ancient history.
Gives new insight into the Scriptures, though it was hard for me to follow sometimes, because everything is done in Jubilees time of 7 years and 49 years, but very detailed in the information that was presented. Every time I read a book that was left out of the Scriptures, it makes me wonder why was it left out. I have not found any of these books to detract from the Scriptures, but they only enhance the understanding of the Scriptures with more details about what GOD was trying to tell us, and prepare us for. Remember that the Scriptures were written for us but not to us, so these books help by giving us information that will help us to understand.
I found this book extremely interesting and informative. Like the Books of Enoch, while this book was never canonized into Western Bibles, it is a part of the Ethopic Bible, which has 81 books, instead of the 66 boobks of the Western Chritian Bible or the 72 books of the Catholic Bible. The Book of Jublies refers to time as measured from the 1st day of Creation, and it gives a lot more detail behind many characters from the Torah (1st 5 books of the Tanakh). It is very interesting to say the least, and a must read for serious theologians!
This is my second time purchasing the book of jubilees. I also plan on purchasing another one for someone else. This book does not stray away from sound biblical Doctrine, however it just adds to what we already know from the Bible by filling in the holes that were not explained in the Holy Bible.
This book opened my eyes to what the church is not telling us about missing books of the Bible and the truths to the Most Highs Sabbaths and Holy Days. Jubilees is based on multiples of seven to the Most High God. 49 years is a Jubilee. The Most High also made it easy with seven days, seven months, seven years and how these account for Sabbaths and Feast days that no one seems to want to follow. The original year is supposed to be 364 days and when that's divided by 7, we have 52 weeks. 5 and 2 is 7. It's that easy and He made it like that for all mankind to follow and prosper.
I recently read an article where humans are depleting the soil of minerals when farming and how we are not getting enough essential minerals in our diets. Now the Most High told us to let soil rest every seven years so that it can naturally replenish its minerals. However, misguided and ignorant man has decided to do his own thing defying the laws of the Most High that were given to us for our own good.
Leviticus 254
King James Version (KJV)
4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto the land, a sabbath for the Lord thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.
