The Book of Jubilees is included in the canon of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church and known from the Dead Sea Scrolls. It retells the events of Genesis and part of Exodus, but with significant expansions, reinterpretations, and a highly structured chronological system based on 49-year "jubilee" cycles.
Does the Book of Jubilees imply that the Genesis and Exodus accounts are disorganized, incomplete, or in need of correction?
I'm especially interested in how this is understood within Christian theology, rather than purely literary or historical analysis.
