after my reading so far of The Book of Jubilees and The Book of Enoch i have come to the conclusion that there has been great misunderstanding of two key concepts in the actual history

- burnt offerings are literally cooking a barbecue for guests

- the guests, the Lord and the angels - yes, they were humans (different variety, pale skin, thus "elohim" or "bright ones") - physically visited the notable figures at least in the early times between Adam and Noah, and after the flood until at least after Daniel, but they stopped visiting so much sometime around 2500 years ago (possibly they left the planet) as there is nearly no evidence of the frequency of contact described in the old texts (and this includes other cultures, hindu, africans, north americans, aboriginals even)
