The Book of Jubilees (Lesser Genesis): an ancient Jewish text of 50 chapters, canonical in the Ethiopian Orthodox tradition and among Beta Israel, retelling Genesis with chronological emphasis.
Also called the Book of Division, Jubilees reworks Genesis with angelic revelation, a jubilee-based chronology, priestly law and calendar material—key for studies in Second Temple Judaism, Ethiopian canon formation, and biblical interpretation. Includes reference to the Edward Laning painting; published by Filipino Tracts and Literature Society Inc., a gospel-focused press.
