Abstract

There are many books referred to in the Old Testament—the Book of Jasher, the Book of the Covenant, the Book of the Wars of the Lord, etc.—about which many questions are asked: Who wrote them? What are their contents? Where are they today Unfortunately, little if anything can be said by way of positive answer; yet it is possible to discuss some aspects of the problem and to suggest some possible answers.
