Book of Jasher (Pseudo-Jasher)
The Book of Jasher, also called Pseudo-Jasher, is an 18th-century literary forgery by Jacob Ilive.〔Constitutional free speech defined and defended Theodore Schroeder - 1970 JACOB ILIVE — 1756.63 Jacob Ilive (1705-1763) was a type founder, printer, publisher of a magazine and a voluminous author, ... fictitious, and chimerical, and as a gross Piece of Forgery and Priestcraft, and thereby to weaken, enervate〕 It purports to be an English translation by Flaccus Albinus Alcuinus of the lost ''Book of Jasher''. It is sometimes called Pseudo-Jasher to distinguish it from the midrashic Sefer haYashar (''Book of the Upright,'' Naples, 1552), which incorporates genuine Jewish legend.
Published in November 1751, the title page of the book says: "translated into English by Flaccus Albinus Alcuinus, of Britain, Abbot of Canterbury, who went on a pilgrimage into the Holy Land and Persia, where he discovered this volume in the city of Gazna." The book claims to be written by Jasher, son of Caleb, one of Moses' lieutenants, who later judged Israel at Shiloh. Jasher covers biblical history from the creation down to Jasher's own day and was represented as being the Lost Book of Jasher mentioned in the Bible.

In Alcuinus' supposed translation, the Law is not given to Moses on Mount Sinai by God, but near to the mountain by Moses' father-in-law Jethro as the basis for civil government. The Creation occurs in the first chapter by natural process out of the ether and God only appears in Eden after the plants and animals, at the human stage of creation. Adam and Eve do not transgress, and, later on, Noah is credited only with the invention of shipping. The adjustments to the biblical narrative clearly promote Deist and Rationalist viewpoints from the 18th century, when the book was published, and the noble innocence of primitive humanity untarnished by original sin.
