Exploring the Devil Figure in The Book of Jubilees

This chapter delves into the devil figure, Mastema, in The Book of Jubilees, examining his role in proposing a deal with God to afflict only the wicked. It discusses the presence of evil spirits lingering from the giants wiped out by the flood and how demons are used to bring about repentance in the wicked. The narrative also touches on the darker aspects of spirits in Jubilees, the covenant with Noah, and insights on figures like Canaan and the Tower of Babel.
