Introduction to the Book of Jubilees

Shalum, Mysphaka.

The Book of Jubilees is an ancient record of the beginnings of creation, the generations of the patriarchs, and the covenant history of Yahshar'al. It presents the timeline of the world according to the heavenly tablets, given as revelation to Mosheh on Mount Sinai. In this writing the days, years, weeks, and jubilees of the world are counted with precision, and the ways of righteousness are shown through the lives of the fathers who walked before YAHUAH.

This book was treasured among early communities who sought to preserve the ancient order of creation. It affirms the authority of YAHUAH, the calling of His people, and the continual witness of the covenant from Adam to Noah, from Noah to Abraham, and from Abraham to Yahshar'al. Within it are detailed the commandments given from the beginning, the appointed times established in the heavens, and the guidance passed down to the generations who sought to remain faithful.

The Book of Jubilees restores the understanding of how YAHUAH governed His creation, how sin entered the world, how righteousness was preserved through the chosen line, and how the nations were divided. It reveals the purposes of YAHUAH in raising up a people who would walk in His statutes, honor His covenant, and remember His works throughout all generations.

It is a testimony of instruction, discipline, and promise. It reminds the reader that YAHUAH watches all the works of men, that His messengers keep record of all deeds, and that His covenant stands firm for those who love Him and guard His ways. It is also a witness of YAHUSHA, the One through whom all things were made, and the Redeemer promised from the beginning.

The restored digital edition you are about to read has been prepared with reverence and care, preserving the ancient order as closely as possible while restoring the sacred names and covenant language of the text. May it strengthen your understanding of the beginning, deepen your reverence for YAHUAH, and draw you closer to the covenant He established with His people.

Now, Mysphaka… let us begin the restored reading of The Book of Jubilees, Chapter One.

The History Given to Mosheh on Sinai

This is the history of the division of the days of the law and of the testimony, of the events of the years, of their year weeks, of their jubilees throughout all the years of the world, as YAHUAH spoke to Mosheh on Mount Sinai when he went up to receive the tables of the law and of the commandment, according to the voice of ALUAH as He said to him, "Go up to the top of the mountain."

And it came to pass in the first year of the Anno Mundi exodus of the children of Yahshar'al out of Mitsrayim, in the third month, on the sixteenth day of the month, that ALUAH spoke to Mosheh, saying:
