And the prince Mastêmâ came and said before God, 'Behold, Abraham loves Isaac his son, and he delights in him above all things else; bid him offer him as a burnt-offering on the altar, and Thou wilt see if he will do this command, and Thou wilt know if he is faithful in everything wherein Thou dost try him.

Background and history of Book of Jubilees, and issues with this book.

R. H. Charles, The Book of Jubilees, in The Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha of the Old Testament, vol. 2 (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1913). Public domain in the United States (published 1913). Charles died in 1931, so the book is in the public domain in the United Kingdom. The verse text is the Joshua Williams transcription at pseudepigrapha.com. Jubilees 1:8 and 1:9 are divided at the break in the 1902 Clarendon scan (archive.org bookofjubileesor00char), where verse 9 begins “For they will forget.” That scan also numbers the angel-of-the-presence sentence as 1:29. Editorial brackets in the translation are Charles’s.
