Ethiopian Bible in English Complete: Amplified Edition, Eddie Helton Brooks, 2024, ISBN 979-8-33791-891-4
This contains 150 religious books. It starts with many of the Books of the Christian Bible, including Genesis, Exodus, Job, Proverbs, Acts, the 4 Gospels and the Book of Revelation.
It is followed by several deuterocanonical Books, like Judith, Additions to Esther, Prayer of Manasseh and 1-4 Maccabees. It also contains Extra-Canonical and Apocryphal Books, like The Vision of Isaiah, Psalm 151, The Psalms of Solomon, The Testament of Abraham and The Sibylline Oracles.
The comes some examples of Christian Apocrypha. These include The Epistle of Barnabas, The Gospel of Mary, The Martyrdom of Polycarp, The Acts of Paul and Thecla, The Gospel of Judas, The Gospel of Truth and The Testament of the Twelve Patriarchs.
My only criticism of this book is that some sort of explanation of what an Ethiopian Bible is (even just a couple of paragraphs on the back cover) would have helped a lot. For those who are already familiar with an Ethiopian Bible, this book is very much worth picking up and reading at any point for a few minutes a day.
