Keephas or a Ducheephath?

Question

Does any one know or have information on what is a Keephas or a Ducheephath.

These are the strange creatures witnessed by Anah In the book of Jasher.

The book of Jasher is mentioned only twice in the bible. There are two lines that remotely mention it and these can be found in Joshua chapter 10 Line 13, and the second book of Samuel chapter one line 18. These lines read as follows:

Joshua: Chapter 10; Line 13: “Is it not written in the book of Jasher?”

Second book of Samuel: Chapter 1: Line 18: “Behold it is written in the Book of Jasher.”

The answer may fall into the realms of earths ancient history, such as Sumeria, Zacharia Stitchin , Planet X, Aliens and UFO's, anunaki, heaven, the gods, Egypt, Jason Martell, etc...

Answer 1

Thank you for this question - Book of Jasher is new to me - but looked up these quotes. Very interesting. You probably know these quotes already, I've put the sites underneath if you want to check them out. There is no more info on them that I can find.

Sefer haYashar (midrash), a Hebrew midrash known in English translation mostly as The Book of Jasher. The book claims to be the lost Sefer HaYashar mentioned in Joshua and 2 Samuel.

The Hebrew version was printed in Venice in 1625 and the introduction refers to an earlier 1552 edition in Naples of which neither trace or other mention has been found. The printer Joseph ben Samuel claimed the work was copied by a scribe named Jacob the son of Atyah from an ancient manuscript whose letters could hardly be made out.

And there was a day that he brought them to one of the deserts on the sea shore, opposite the wilderness of the people, and whilst he was feeding them, behold a very heavy storm came from the other side of the sea and rested upon the asses that were feeding there, and they all stood still.

And afterward about one hundred and twenty great and terrible animals came out from the wilderness at the other side of the sea, and they all came to the place where the asses were, and they placed themselves there.

And those animals, from their middle downward, were in the shape of the children of men, and from their middle upward, some had the likeness of bears, and some the likeness of the keephas, with tails behind them from between their shoulders reaching down to the earth, like the tails of the ducheephath, and these animals came and mounted and rode upon these asses, and led them away, and they went away unto this day.

And one of these animals approached Anah and smote him with his tail, and then fled from that place.

And when he saw this work he was exceedingly afraid of his life, and he fled and escaped to the city.

The Old Testament books of Joshua and 2nd Samuel mentions an ancient book called, The Book of Jasher; And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hastened not to go down about a whole day. (Joshua 10:13) Also he bade them teach the children of Judah the use of the bow: behold, it is written in the book of Jasher. (2Samuel 1:18) The book of Jasher is an excellent addition to the books of the Bible for the study of Biblical history.


For several generations after the flood, the hybrid humans and some other mutant life-forms created by the Nephilim were still running around terrorizing the people. Those animals, from their middle downward, were in the shape of the children of men, and from their middle upward, some had the likeness of bears, and some the likeness of the keephas, with tails behind them from between their shoulders reaching down to the earth, like the tails of the ducheephath, and these animals came and mounted and rode upon these asses, and led them away, and they went away unto this day. (Jasher 36:32) Zepho went and he saw and behold there was a large cave at the bottom of the mountain, and there was a great stone there at the entrance of the cave, and Zepho split the stone and he came into the cave and he looked and behold, a large animal was devouring the ox; from the middle upward it resembled a man, and from the middle downward it resembled and animal, and Zepho rose up against the animal and slew it with his sword. (Jasher 61:15)

Venice (Venezia) really needs no release, see how to get there with hotelbye . This city has been a fabled destination for centuries. Only the title Venice is sufficient to conjure up a host of photographs, also for folks who have not even set foot in Italy. From gondoliers in striped jerseys to the Rialto and the Bridge of Sighs, masked balls, fantastic barges, courtesans in gondolas and crumbling palaces experiencing roads made from water Venice is an incredible city. When the only real connection throughout the Grand Canal, Rialto Bridge marks the spot of the island's first settlement, named Rivus Altus and is now among the a lot of place that Venice needs to offer.
