The Book Of Jubilees Chapter 50
Remember the Shabbats of YAHWEH and keep it Kodesh and do not pollute it
1 And after this Torah I made known to you the days of the Shabbats in the desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai.
2 And I told you of the Shabbats of the land on Mount Sinai, and I told you of the jubilee years in the Shabbats of years: but the year thereof have I not told you till you enter the land which you are to possess.
3 And the land also shall keep its Shabbats while they dwell upon it, and they shall know the jubilee year.
4 Wherefore I have ordained for you the year-weeks and the years and the jubilees: there are forty-nine jubilees from the days of Adam until this day, [2410 A.M.] and one week and two years: and there are yet forty years to come (lit. 'distant') for learning the [2450 A.M.] commandments of YAHWEH, until they pass over into the land of Canaan, crossing the Jordan to the west.
5 And the jubilees shall pass by, until Yisrael is cleansed from all guilt of fornication, and uncleanness, and pollution, and sin, and error, and dwells with confidence in all the land, and there shall be no more a Satan or any evil one, and the land shall be clean from that time forevermore.
6 And behold the commandment regarding the Shabbats -I have written them down for you- and all the judgments of its laws.
7 Six days shall you labor, but on the seventh day is the Shabbat of YAHWEH your Sovereign Ruler. In it you shall do no manner of work, you and your sons, and your men- servants and your maid-servants, and all your cattle and the sojourner also who is with you.
8 And the man that does any work on it shall die: whoever desecrates that day, whoever lies with (his) wife, or whoever says he will do something on it, that he will set out on a journey thereon in regard to any buying or selling: and whoever draws water thereon which he had not prepared for himself on the sixth day, and whoever takes up any burden to carry it out of his tent or out of his house shall die.
9 You shall do no work whatever on the Shabbat day save what you have prepared for yourselves on the sixth day, so as to eat, and drink, and rest, and keep Shabbat from all work on that day, and to bless YAHWEH your Sovereign Ruler, who has given you a day of festival and a kodesh day: and a day of the kodesh kingdom for all Yisrael is this day among their days forever.
10 For great is the honor which YAHWEH has given to Yisrael that they should eat and drink and be satisfied on this festival day, and rest thereon from all labor which belongs to the labor of the children of men save burning frankincense and bringing oblations and sacrifices before YAHWEH for days and for Shabbats.
11 This work alone shall be done on the Shabbat-days in the sanctuary of YAHWEH your Sovereign Ruler; that they may atone for Yisrael with sacrifice continually from day to day for a memorial well-pleasing before YAHWEH, and that He may receive them always from day to day according as you have been commanded.
12 And every man who does any work thereon, or goes a journey, or tills (his) farm, whether in his house or any other place, and whoever lights a fire, or rides on any beast, or travels by ship on the sea, and whoever strikes or kills anything, or slaughters a beast or a bird, or whoever catches an animal or a bird or a fish, or whoever fasts or makes war on the Shabbats:
13 The man who does any of these things on the Shabbat shall die, so that the children of Yisrael shall observe the Shabbats according to the commandments regarding the Shabbats of the land, as it is written in the tablets, which He gave into my hands that I should write out for you the laws of the seasons, and the seasons according to the division of their days.
Herewith is completed the account of the division of the days.
