Japanese translation of The Book of Jubilees (Lesser Genesis) — an ancient 50-chapter Jewish text revered by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church and Beta Israel (Book of Division).
This edition presents the Book of Jubilees in Japanese, offering scholars and devotional readers access to its retelling of Genesis and Exodus themes, angelic revelation, chronological jubilees, laws, and covenant material. Also known as the Book of Division, this work is canonical in Ethiopian traditions and valuable for comparative biblical studies, early Jewish literature, and Christian readers exploring extra‑canonical texts.
