Chronicles of Jerahmeel Index

| | Chronicles of Jerahmeel by Moses Gaster [1899] | Contents Start Reading Page Index Text [Zipped] This is Moses Gaster's translation of the Chronicles of Jerahmeel. The book is a collection of extended Biblical events, mixed with Roman history, lists of geographical names, and Patriarchial genealogies. Gaster believed that the Chronicles were compiled from Hebrew sources, both ancient and medieval. The text runs from the void before Creation, through the Deuterocanonical Apocrypha. This book abounds with astounding folklore.--J.B. Hare, Dec. 30th, 2009. Title Page Contents Preface Introduction Compiler's Preface I II III IV V VI VII VIII IX.
