About this title

Synopsis

On Three Books Purporting To Be The Book Of Jasher is a paper written by John Birkbeck Nevins and presented before the Literary and Philosophical Society of Liverpool in March 1885. The paper discusses three different books that claim to be the Book of Jasher, a lost book of the Old Testament. Nevins examines the authenticity of each book and compares them to the known fragments of the original Book of Jasher. He also discusses the historical and cultural context in which these books were written and their relevance to biblical studies. The paper provides a thorough analysis of the three books and their significance in the study of biblical history and literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
