The Book of Jubilees names Noah’s wife Emzara.
The biblical Book of Genesis identifies Noah’s wife only as Noah’s wife and does not give her a personal name. The Book of Jubilees, a later Jewish work generally dated to the second century BCE, expands on Genesis and supplies names for several figures. It calls Noah’s wife Emzara and names their sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, following Genesis for the sons.
Emzara is therefore not the answer to a question about a name stated in Genesis itself. She belongs to a later interpretive tradition that retells and elaborates on biblical history. Different Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions sometimes preserve different names for otherwise unnamed people connected with the Flood.
This distinction prevents a common source mix-up. “Emzara” is supported by Jubilees, while Genesis leaves Noah’s wife unnamed. The Book of Jubilees also presents itself as revelation given to Moses and organizes biblical history into a chronological framework of jubilees.
