The forbidden scriptures banned & buried 1,600 years ago. Preserved alone by Ethiopia.Silenced. Suppressed. Forbidden to copy, read, or possess. The books in this volume vanished from Western Bibles — condemned by councils, scrubbed from canon, and nearly lost to history.Only one church refused to let them die. While Rome and Constantinople were burning manuscripts, the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church kept the flame.Where standard Bibles end at 66 books, Ethiopia preserved 88 — including the prophecies, gospels, and revelations the early church read, quoted, and revered before later councils tore them out.This volume restores the most extraordinary of those scriptures in a single illustrated, large-print edition, with companion digital access to one of the largest sacred libraries ever assembled in English.FEATURED IN THIS VOLUMEThe Book of Enoch (Ethiopic / 1 Enoch) — the foundational narrative of the Watchers and the Nephilim, quoted directly in Jude 1:14The Book of Jubilees — Ethiopia's alternative Genesis, preserved nowhere elseThe Book of Giants — recovered from the Dead Sea ScrollsThe Wisdom of SolomonTobit, 1 Esdras, and 2 Esdras (4 Ezra)The Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Mary MagdaleneThe Infancy Gospel of Thomas and the Apocalypse of PeterDIGITAL COMPANION (FREE ONLINE ACCESS)The entire Ethiopian Orthodox canon that's been translated into EnglishOver 1,700 sacred texts including the Apocrypha, Pseudepigrapha, and Nag Hammadi libraryThe Apostolic Fathers, Dead Sea Scrolls writings, and rare early Christian scripturesLifetime access via QR code printed in the volumeEDITION FEATURESLarge-print 15-point Georgia type for comfortable extended readingIllustrated with classic 19th-century woodcut engravingsTranslations from R.H. Charles, M.R. James, G.R.S. Mead, and other authoritative pre-1929 scholarly editionsAvailable in paperback and premium hardcoverFOR THE READERWhether you are a student of early Christianity, a member of an Orthodox tradition, a Bible-study reader exploring beyond the standard 66 books, or a curious seeker of what later canons left behind, this volume opens a door long closed in Western religious life.On canon and completeness: No single English-language volume contains every text recognized in the Ethiopian tradition — many remain untranslated from Ge'ez or survive only in fragments. This anthology gathers the major texts available in reliable public domain English translations, giving readers an accessible single-volume entry point into one of Christianity's oldest and richest scriptural traditions.These are not new books. They are among the oldest scriptures still readable on earth, preserved by one of the oldest continuous Christian traditions in the world.Discover what was preserved. Read more
