The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church preserves a collection of eighty-one sacred books, making it the broadest and most complete biblical canon in the world. Unlike Western Bibles that typically contain sixty-six or seventy-three books, the Ethiopian tradition includes ancient texts in the Ge'ez language that were lost or excluded by other Christian branches centuries ago. This canon represents a unique way of holding divine revelation through a vast library of ancient Christian texts.
In the Ethiopian Tewahedo tradition, the forty days following the resurrection of Jesus are treated as a mystical and intensive classroom for the Apostles. Rather than viewing this period as a brief epilogue, the unique scriptures of the Ethiopian New Testament focus on this time as a profound era of divine instruction. It is seen as a secret period of revelation where Jesus provided essential teachings to his followers before his ascension.
The Ethiopian Bible is built upon two inseparable pillars: Holy Scripture and Holy Tradition, both of which are received with equal veneration. This approach means that the apostolic tradition, or the 'unwritten word,' is woven directly into the life of the church. This living context provides a framework for understanding the written text, ensuring that ancient Christian traditions and the Ge'ez scriptures remain central to the faith.
