The Book of Jasher Uncloaked by W. F. Dankenbring. Virtually ignored since it was discovered, the Book of Jasher holds vital clues to interpreting and understanding Biblical chronology, from the Flood to the Exodus. A mistake made by Archbishop James Ussher, who was unfamiliar with the book of Jasher, led to a 60-year error in placing the birth of Abraham. But this error is corrected in the chronological keys provided by the book of Jasher. And with these keys, an intriguing, and astounding story emerges. William F. Dankenbring

Select the file to run it, and authorize that your PC can run it. This is a Setup Wizard, which will provide you with suitable prompts. It is set up to install “Book of Jasher.topx” in a faulty folder which ought to go instead to the User’s Personal folder for e-Sword files. Change the default, such as: C:\Users\user\Documents\e-Sword\e-Sword in the address of the required target path and destination folder, by removing the extra “e-Sword\” in the target address. This is an example where we learn that we must always read the screen options extremely carefully.
Exit e-Sword if it is running. Restart e-Sword to see the new addition.
If you had not corrected the target address, you will find the missing file by viewing this as follows. Open the Topics Editor, and notice that you do not find the entry “Book of Jasher” listed. Tap the pointer anywhere on the Topics Editor page, to enable the PC to set up the context of where your Pointer is found. Press the left Ctrl key on the computer keyboard, and while you hold this down, hover your pointer over the open window, and click the right mouse button. You will see a menu with the following options: New … ; Open … ; Import … ; Export … ; Convert to Reference Book … . Select the OPEN option. You can now let go of the Ctrl key. A new screen window, titled “Open Topic Notes File” will open. On the right of the “File name:” selection box, you will see an option in the lower right of the screen, to select files with the format “Topic Note Files (*.topx)” and you will notice that there is also another dialogue selection option available there. Move the pointer over that selection down-arrow, and there you will see that there is a second choice, “Old Topic Note Files (*.top)”. It is useful to know about this second possibility. Select the first way, so that you will be searching for files with the “.topx” file type in the file name.
Browse to the destination folder into which the file “Book of Jasher.topx” was installed. When you find the file, such as in C:\Users\user\Documents\e-Sword\e-Sword then tap on the filename, to bring the filename into the “File name:” window, and the file will be opened in the current version of e-Sword Topics Editor. The content will be sorted by e-Sword into the alpha-numeric order of the list of topics inside this topx file. There is no “save as” option provided to save this topx file into another folder. Remember to “Save” the file.
HOW TO MOVE THE FILE FROM THE FAULTY DESTINATION FOLDER
Exit e-Sword. Browse to the folder where the file is, select the file and right click. View to check what the Properties of the file are. Select the option to “copy” the file, browse to the folder into which the file is to be copied, and use the right-click option to “paste” the file to that folder. Now check that the newly copied file is where you expected it to be and that you can read it successfully with e-Sword; before you decide to delete the original file.
If there were other files in the faulty folder, check their properties, and process them appropriately.

COMMENT: I suggest that you first read the section “Book of Jasher Uncloaked by W. F. Brankenbring”, then read the section second from the end, “Translator’s Preface”. Then read “Is it the Real Book of Jasher?” I suggest you then read the various other sections, in alphabetical order, before the Chapters, and the sections in alphabetical order, after the list of the chapters. I suggest you then read “Table of Contents”, to have a list of the contents of the Chapters. Then read chapters 1 to 9, in chapter order, and then read chapters 10 to 91.
