Biblical Families is not a dating website. It is a forum to discuss issues relating to marriage and the Bible, and to offer guidance and support, not to find a wife. Click here for more information.
found one and did not realize that the book of Jasher was referenced twice in the Bible,
"Behold it is written in the Book of Jasher."--II Samuel, 1:18
and
"Is not this written in the Book of Jasher?"--Joshua, 10:13
This is good for me, I had not developed enough animosity towards the Americana Churchiosity and how I have been led toward a religion of words that have no effect.
We had a few copies at the retreat. There is another reference from Jasher in Timothy where it speaks of Janes and Jambres opposing Moses/Moshe.
There are also a few PLURAL references not found in Scripture. Noah is said to have had 2 wives and Benjamen received gifts from Pharaoh for his WIVES.
Overall I'd say, Sefer Yahshar-Book of Jasher is AUTHENTIC historic augmentation to Genesis. Is it Scripture? VERY CLOSE, but no cigar. As for the Book of Jubilees, my own view is that it is far less reliable than Jasher and should not considered close to Jasher's reliability. Shalom
