The Book of Jasher, a lost book of the Bible comprising ninety-one
chapters, is presented here complete in the celebrated 1840 English
translation by Moses Samuel. Referenced twice in the New Testament
scripture - once in Joshua and once in Second Samuel - the Book of
Jasher is also known as the Sefer haYashar or the Book of the
Upright. Its contents are wide-ranging; the creation of Man and the
story of Adam and Eve, and the descendants of Noah comprise part of
the text. The testing of Abraham by God also features, while
Abraham's dialogue is notably expanded far beyond what is said in
the Hebrew Bible. The text has gained a great following since its
translation to English in the mid-19th century. The Church of
Latter-Day Saints founder Joseph Smith praised its detail, noting
the book's elaboration on the condition of the Earth following the
Great Flood.
