Book of Jubilees · The Full Story Behind the Angel and the Heavenly Tablets · 3 Hour Sleep Story

An angel reading aloud to Moses from tablets that were written before the world was made, and a man on a mountain writing it down. Tonight, the Book of Jubilees opened properly: a book by somebody who read Genesis and could not bear that so much of it happened with no law behind it. The garden of Eden as a temple, with Adam brought in after forty days and Eve after eighty, and the temple incense burned at its gate on the day they left. The animals going quiet. Cain killed by his own house of stone. The book of medicines an angel taught Noah for the sickness the spirits cause. The accuser who proposed the test on the mountain and stood at the altar and was put to shame when the knife stopped, and who was bound for five days behind the people on the night of the lamb so he could not speak against them. Abraham building the first booths with a wreath on his head. Levi counted as a tithe, the tenth son from the youngest, and given the old books to keep and renew. The children with white hair, and the promise that the world is healed by reading. A three hour sleep story, the fifth night of Season Six, The Lost Books.

An angel reading aloud to Moses from tablets that were written before the world was made, and a man on a mountain writing it down. Tonight, the Book of Jubilees opened properly: a book that retells Genesis through law and heavenly tablets. The garden of Eden as a temple, with Adam brought in after forty days and Eve after eighty, and the temple incense burned at its gate on the day they left. The animals going quiet. Cain killed by his own house of stone. The book of medicines an angel taught Noah for the sickness the spirits cause. The accuser who proposed the test on the mountain and stood at the altar and was put to shame when the knife stopped, and who was bound for five days behind the people on the night of the lamb so he could not speak against them. Abraham building the first booths with a wreath on his head. Levi counted as a tithe, the tenth son from the youngest, and given the old books to keep and renew. The children with white hair, and the promise that the world is healed by reading. A three hour sleep story, the fifth night of Season Six, The Lost Books. Framed by an imagined copyist taking the book down from his shelf in a round highland church in Ethiopia. The Book of Jubilees, Mashafa Kufale, is scripture in the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church today, whole, in Ge'ez, and it was kept by the Jews of Ethiopia too. An authentic book is not the same as a true event, and this one is authentic, written in Hebrew about a hundred and fifty years before Christ, quoted by the church fathers, found in pieces in the Dead Sea caves and under another book in a library in Milan.
