Rating: Summary: The "true" book of Jasher is wonderously inspired. Review: This book, read by a searcher for truth, is convincing as only the Lord God of Heaven can inspire. It fills out many of the Biblical stories from Creation to the end of the days of Joshua, and brings comfort with its truth. It gives greater enlightenment on the relationship, and working together (or not as the case may be) of many well-known individuals both before and after the flood. (ie: Methuselah & Noah; Noah, Shem, & Abraham; Nimrod & the Tower of Babel; Nimrod & Terah, the father of Abraham, and the baby Abraham) .This book is referred to in both Joshua and 2nd Samuel, and reading it reveals its high value. The translator in the Preface warns of a another copy of Jasher, one that was printed by the London Courier in the middle 1800's. It had no proper identification of printer, editior, or publisher - probably because it was translated by a skeptic. Be careful. The author of the true book of Jasher was not Jasher. The term is a Hebrew idiom understood by those who understand the Hebrew language, and literally meaning "the upright or correct record". Read the book; you will not be disappointed.

Rating: Summary: Great read, get a different copy... Review: This is a fascinating and important book to own, but get a different edition. The reason that they don't show the cover up at the top of this page is because it is HORRIBLY UGLY! I mean, neon pink and electric blue! Buy this book, but get a different copy of it!
