Book of Jubilees · Restored Names Edition · first paragraph

1In the twenty-ninth jubilee, in the first week, 1373 A M. in the beginning thereof Arpachshad took to himself a wife and her name was Râsû’ĕjâ, the daughter of Sûsân, the daughter of Elam, and she bare him a son in the third year in this week, and he called his name Kâinâm.

2And the son grew, and his father taught him writing, and he went to seek for himself a place where he might seize for himself a city.
