Jubilees 17 — The Departure of Hagar and Ishmael

Book of Jubilees · Restored Names Edition · first paragraph

1And in the first year of the fifth week Isaac was weaned in this jubilee, and Abraham made a great banquet in the third month, on the day his son Isaac was weaned.

2And Ishmael, the son of Hagar, the Egyptian, was before the face of Abraham, his father, in his place, and Abraham rejoiced and blessed Elohim (God) because he had seen his sons and had not died childless.

3And he remembered the words which He had spoken to him on the day on which Lot had parted from him, and he rejoiced because Yahuah (God) had given him seed upon the earth to inherit the earth, and he blessed with all his mouth the Creator of all things.
