What if you could hold in your hands a biblical canon that transcends the familiar 66 books—revealing ancient texts preserved for centuries in the Ethiopian Orthodox tradition?

For centuries, the Ethiopian Church has safeguarded a unique 88-book Bible, featuring texts like 1 Enoch, Jubilees, and 1–3 Meqabyan, in addition to expanded versions of Esther and Daniel. Now, these rarely seen scriptures are presented in a clear, modern format, granting contemporary readers unprecedented access to a scriptural heritage that offers fresh perspectives on familiar stories and doctrines.

Included Texts:

  • Entire Old Testament (Genesis to Malachi) in Ethiopian form, with additional passages.
  • Deuterocanonical and Apocryphal Books such as Tobit, Judith, Baruch, Sirach, and beyond.
  • Enoch, Jubilees & Meqabyan – Ancient texts shedding new light on creation, prophecy, and salvation history.
  • Expanded New Testament – The usual 27 books plus eight Ethiopian-only writings (Sinodos, Ethiopic Didascalia, etc.).
  • What You'll Discover Inside:

  • A Broader Biblical Landscape – Explore stories and teachings long lost to Western traditions.
  • Hidden Prophecies & Insights – Delve into writings that expand on the themes of angels, judgment, and redemption.
  • Deep Roots of Orthodox Christian Practice – Learn how these texts have shaped Ethiopian liturgy and spirituality.
  • Historical & Cultural Context – Gain a richer understanding of early Christian and Jewish communities in Africa.
  • Unlock the profound wisdom and heritage of the Ethiopian Orthodox canon. Embark on a journey through scriptures once hidden from much of the world, and enrich your understanding of biblical history, faith, and devotion.
