Description

The Book of Jasher is a book by an unknown author, first published in the 19th century as a purported translation of an ancient Hebrew text. Often cited as a "lost book" of the Bible, it claims to offer an expanded narrative of biblical history from the creation of the world to the conquest of Canaan, including detailed accounts of figures such as Adam, Noah, Abraham, and Moses. Though not considered canonical by any major religious tradition, the work has fascinated readers with its attempt to fill in narrative gaps and elaborate on biblical events with vivid, sometimes apocryphal detail. Its historical authenticity remains disputed, yet it has found a lasting audience among those interested in biblical apocrypha, esoteric traditions, and alternative scriptural interpretations. The text reflects a 19th-century interest in recovering ancient sources and resonates with the period's broader fascination with biblical archaeology and lost histories.
