	Sefer haYashar (midrash) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sefer haYashar (midrash), a Hebrew midrash known in English translation mostly as The Book of Jasher.
		The book seems to pretend to be the otherwise lost Sefer HaYashar mentioned in Joshua and 2 Samuel and covers Biblical history from the creation of Adam and Eve to a summary of the initial Israelite conquest of Canaan in the beginning of the book of Judges.
		Most of its extra-Biblical accounts are found in nearly the same form in either other medieval compilations, or in the Talmud, or in other midrash or in Arabic sources.

	The World of Midrash (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Because the Midrash is written to fill in gaps in the narrative, any attempt to reconstruct the lives of characters from Tanach will necessarily include a use of the Midrash.
		Midrash was translated into Modern Hebrew by early Zionists.Writers such as Bialik collected various stories from Midrash, and published them to encourage Jews to read from the actual body of Jewish tradition.
		Midrash is a method of reading the Bible as an Eternal text, and is the result of applying a set of hermeneutical principles evolved by the community to guide one in reading the canon, in order to focus one's reading.

		Jacqueline-Lise Genot-Bismuth was director of a team from the Seminaire sur le Sefer Hayashar de le Centre de Recherches sur la Culture Rabbinique which produced an introductory tome to their reprint of the 1625 Venice Hebrew edition of Sefer Yashar which was published by des Publications Universite de la Sorbonne Nouvelle in 1986.
		The Hebrew introduction to Sefer Hayashar makes the claim that the book was rescued from Roman in 70 CE by one of Titus's generals who discovered an elderly Jewish man with a collection of ancient Hebrew texts while plundering the city after its defeat.
		Sefer Hayashar is primarily a work of written Jewish history and as such it went against the emphasis of Talmudic scholarship on oral tradition and its interpreters.

	Science Fair Projects - Book of Jasher (Pseudo-Jasher)
		It is sometimes called Pseudo-Jasher to distinguish it from the Sefer haYashar (midrash) which encorporates genuine Jewish legend.
		Jasher covers Biblical history from the creation down to Jasher's own day and was represented as being the supposedly lost Sefer HaYashar mentioned in the Bible.
		This book is sometimes confused with the very different Sefer haYashar (midrash).

		In this instance, we questioned whether 've-asita hayashar ve-hatov was an external moral regulator or actually altered the landscape of Choshen Mishpat.
		It was written by someone else (possibly a student of the Ra'avad since he is often quoted) but not by the Ritva.
		Indeed the Ritva authored a commentary to Babba Metzia which for many years was found in a sefer called the Ritva Hachadashim to Babba Metzia.

		This midrash collection was redacted into its final form around the 3rd or 4th century CE; its contents indicate that its sources are some of the oldest midrashim, dating back possibly to the time of Rabbi Akiva.
		The midrash on Exodus that was known to the Amoraim is not the same as our current mekhilta; their version was only the core of what later grew into the present form.
		Sefer haYashar (Toldot Adam) "The Book of The Upright" presents a view of history from Adam and Eve to the Exodus from Egypt.

	Is The Qur'anic Surah Of Joseph Borrowed From Jewish Midrashic Sources?
		The implicit assumption of this "understanding" the "incoherent" Qur'anic account by using the Midrashic sources such as Midrash Yalkut, Midrash Genesis Rabbah, Tanhuma, Midrash Ha-Gadol and Sefer Ha-Yashar is that these sources existed before the advent of Islam and that the Prophet Muhammad misread, misunderstood or misheard the story of Joseph.
		Midrash Tanhuma: A detailed discussion about the dating of this book is given elsewhere.
		Midrash Genesis Rabbah: Very briefly, although scholars had claimed that this Midrash was edited in the 6th century CE, it has now been shown that the text of this Midrash was horribly unstable even when in the Middle Ages.

		Sefer Hayashar claims that as the tear was found in front, as the Wife was holding him down; while the Koran suggests that as the tear was found at the back it proves that she ran after him clutching tom him.
		This motive could be seen in a mutilated transposition in the biblical story itself seen in the Joseph’s clothes left in Potiphar’s wife’s hand and later exposed to the public as a token of shame.

		SOUND BYTES Many of the mitzvot in Parshat Mishpatim from 22:26-23:19 could be viewed as 'sound-bytes' for entire 'parshiot' that expound on these mitzvot in Sefer Vayikra and Sefer Devarim.
		The parallel can be based on our study of Sefer Breishit where we saw how the mizbeiach forms an avenue by which Avraham declared God's Name to make it known to others.
		We conclude our shiur by relating this structure to the overall theme of Sefer Shmot, as discussed by Ramban in his introduction to the sefer.

	The Book of Jasher, Is it a lost book of the bible?
		This work thoroughly examines the two editions of the Book of Jasher and concludes that it is "a shameless literary forgery." According to Dr. John Kitto in his famous Cyclopedia of Biblical Literature, fraud was again exposed in the Dublin Christian Examiner, in 1831, and again in the Bristish Critic, January 1834.
		Their work argues that the lack of any evidence of the text between antiquity and 1625 is a primary argument for their suggestion that the text was actually "une fiction d'humaniste juif" (a work of fiction by a Jewish humanist).
		If it is authentic it contains at best, Jewish midrash from the medieval period, but as the documentation show above shows, not even the original translators and publishers were certain of its authenticity.

		For this reason, I chose to use verses and commentaries from the Book of Bereshith, which describes the creation of the world and the actions of the Patriarchs, as the framework for presenting the Torah's perspective on honesty.
		Weaving midrashic and halachic literature with anecdotes from the lives of great Torah personalities, I have attempted to introduce Jewish standards of integrity in a way that is palatable, showing that it is altogether feasible to live a fully honest life in the modern world.
		Since some readers prefer halachic themes more than midrashic ones or vice versa, and others gain more from a story, I have added a code at the top of each essay describing the basic theme (or themes) of that piece.

		Though his primary objective was to establish the plain and exact meaning of the biblical text, he also included interpretations from the Midrash whenever he felt they contributed to the better understanding of Scripture.
		Four of his halakic questions addressed to Rabbenu Tam are preserved in the 'Sefer HaYashar' (p 71a), while excerpts from others are quoted by earlier authorities.
