There are as many as five apocryphal books that go by the name ‘Book of Jasher’ – all of which appear to have been forgeries or composed much later than biblical times. In this series, I chose to use the most accessible version of the Book of Jasher I could find as a basis for the narrative, which is translated from Hebrew and dates back to the year 1613. Whilst I did alter the language – most notably the dialogue of the characters, you’ll find that the framework and the story itself remains the same, as well as running mostly parallel to the events of the Old Testament. The Book of Jasher, known in Hebrew as ‘Sepir Ha Yasher’, is believed to mean ‘Book of the Upright’ or ‘the Upright or Correct Record’. What makes the book so controversial is that it was believed in some circles to be a lost book that is mentioned a couple of times in the bible, most notably by Joshua and David respectively.

Lmfao 15:58 Adam looks like an elf
Mankind is mentally weak and easily influenced into sin.God is right and will rid of sin forever
Free Will does not exist, unless one is self aware- Prior to the fall Adam and Eve were not self aware (otherwise their eyes would have already been open). God, did not want man to have his humanity, but rather, be on par with the animals. Humans were not at their full potential prior to the Fall, and if God had his way, we would never have reached it… Therefore one has to question the nature of "God". I could make the argument that God is just as vain and evil as Satan.
