THE ETHIOPIAN BIBLE

Did you know that, Ethiopian bible is the oldest and most complete bible on earth. They were written on goat skin in the early Ethiopian language of Ge’ez. It is also World’s first illustrated Christian Bible. How come no one talks about the Ethiopian Bible that has all the original scrolls in it?

It's nearly 800 years older than the King James Version and contains over 100 books compared to 66 of the Protestant Bible.

Named after the monk Abba Garima, who is said to have written the text in a single day with divine assistance, the Garima Gospels are beautifully illustrated and well-preserved. 

The Ethiopian Heritage Fund has contributed to conserving this remarkable relic, which has been kept in the Garima Monastery near Adwa in the Tigray region of Ethiopia 🇪🇹 ever since its creation.
