Two tables of books
Most print closed the list. This church did not.
The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church copied its own canon in monasteries and read it in liturgy. The wider table was kept in Geʽez. Now it is English.
Many English printings
A later, shorter table
Most Western printed Bibles follow a closed list. Writings this church still reads were set aside, then the same shorter canon was printed again under new jackets.
That is another cover. It is not this tradition.
This church line
The table that was kept
Geʽez first. A wider table of books, copied for liturgy — now set in English so a family can open it at home, in the 1300, 1700, or 2000 Book. No packs.
You are buying the church’s table, not a thinner reprint.

The long memory
A kingdom. A sacred language. Then a page at home.
This is not a Bible invented for a shop. It is a church’s long memory — from Aksum, through Geʽez copyists, onto a volume a family can open.
-
Station 1: 4th c.
Aksum
A public church
Ethiopian Christianity takes public root in the Aksumite kingdom — a faith older in this land than most of the churches of Europe.
-
Station 2: Geʽez
The scribes
Copied for liturgy
Monasteries wrote the wider canon by hand for the life of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church. That table of books stayed with the church.
-
Station 3: Now
This printing
English at the table
That line, set in type you can read at home. Choose the 1300, 1700, or 2000 Book — the tradition, not a thinner reprint.
A Bible with a country and a century behind it.
Where it is opened
A desk. A family table. Then a name on a parcel.A Book for the hand that will turn the page — not for a glass cabinet.
-
At the desk
For study
The student who wants the wider table of books — the church’s Geʽez line in English, not another jacket on a shortened list.
-
At the table
For the house
Prayer, teaching, and a shelf that is actually used. Clear type. A binding you open every week, not once for a photograph.
-
In the parcel

Name the reader. Then send the Book.
Before you order
The press answers before you pay.Language. The wider table. Three Books. The parcel.
A short catechism of this English edition — the Geʽez church line in the 1300, 1700, or 2000 Book.
Ask the press. Then take the Book.
Catechism of the edition
Q. What language is this volume set in?
A. Complete English. The line is the Geʽez canon kept by the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church — type a family can read at home, not a manuscript scan.
Q. Why this church’s table, not a shorter English printing?
A. This tradition keeps a wider table of books. You are not buying the same shortened canon under a new jacket. The church kept more; this volume follows that church.
Q. What differs among the three Books?
A. Each Book is one volume, and each cover lists its own count of books — compare the three covers side by side. Prices today: 1300 Book $74.99 (was $109.99), 1700 Book $79.99 (was $129.99), and 2000 Book $89.99 (was $149.99). No packs.
Q. How is the volume packed and sent?
A. Packed to travel, ready to ship. Free shipping on orders over $70. Clear type and a binding meant for shelves — printed to be opened, not kept in a box.
Q. Who should keep this Book?
A. Anyone who will actually read it: a student of the wider canon, a household at the table, or a name you write on a parcel.
