A "Head's Up"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Having Purchased the fine edition of the Book of Enoch by Vanderkam and Nickelsburg, I was looking forward to reading this text, hoping to find a copy of the actual _text_ of Jubilees masterfully translated for me. I didn't. It's a commentary, and I'm sure it meets the Vanderkam standard of excellence. If you're looking for the text of Jubilees, however, after getting tantalizing glimpses of it in the articles of people like Fletcher-Louis ("The Cosmology of P and Theological Anthropology in the Wisdom of Jesus Ben Sira"), Margaret Barker and others, you'll need to look elsewhere.
