Ancient Meets Modern in this groundbreaking Modern English translation of Jubilees-the most fascinating, unifying ancient text of all.
Imagine receiving a long-lost letter to humanity from an Angel of God, filled with clear and timely messages for us today.
Modern Jubilees is a brand-new translation of an ancient text that records a profound dialogue between an Angel of God and the Prophet Moses on Mount Sinai in 1,300 BCE. This remarkable text, part of both the Christian Tewahedo Church's and the Jewish Israelite Ethiopian's Holy Bibles, has been faithfully preserved and protected by Ethiopians in the ancient, sacred Ge'ez (Ethiopic) language for two millennia.
Jubilees retells Genesis and part of Exodus, but with a unique perspective and many additional stories and dialogues that illuminate the Biblical narrative with fresh insight. Weaving together the origin story of Abraham's family with the universal, human story of our shared source in creation, Jubilees offers profound relevance for people of all faiths and backgrounds.
In Chapter 8, for instance, Noah and his sons divide the Earth. Drawing lots, each son is apportioned a unique region to inhabit. The boundaries of these regions, described in the text, are artfully depicted in vivid color on the book's cover.
Elbogen masterfully translates this 50-chapter book, drawing upon her deep knowledge of Biblical Hebrew and ancient texts. By incorporating multiple translations and the original Hebrew of the Bible, which Jubilees often parallels, she brings sparkling clarity to the text. The Appendix features illuminating charts that help readers understand her translation process, while insightful footnotes weave together centuries of tradition and wisdom.
It might sound fantastical, but in this groundbreaking Modern English translation, the ancient Book of Jubilees comes alive with renewed relevance.
Now more than ever before, the secrets of this extraordinary text are revealed for all to discover.
