I was wondering what '[1951]' meant, right in the middle of Adam staying up all night, looking at the stars to predict the year's rain (apparently that's a technique around 200 bce). 

It turns out, as the Hermeneia translation volume moves through the text, it supplies the date in brackets (important to the Jubilees author).

And if you prioritize the translation volume (the hard way), other resources popping up Jubilees, will include the dating.

Pretty nifty!

    Thank you.
