The Book of Jubilees is an ancient Jewish text believed to have been written in the second century BCE. It tells the story of the creation of the world and the early history of humanity, as well as providing a detailed account of the laws and customs of the Israelites. The book is divided into 50 chapters, each representing a year in the biblical timeframe from the creation of Adam to the giving of the law at Mount Sinai. The author, who is unknown, presents a unique interpretation of the biblical narrative, adding additional details and providing a framework for understanding the events of the Old Testament. The Book of Jubilees is considered to be an important source for understanding Jewish traditions and beliefs during the Second Temple period, and it is still studied and revered by scholars and religious leaders today.And it came to pass when the children of men began to multiply on the face of the earth and daughters were born unto them, that the angels of God saw them on a certain year of this jubilee, that they were beautiful to look upon; and they took themselves wives of all whom they chose.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
