As Ethiopian and also as a deacon of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, I would like to inform you that our bible has 81 books not 88. And Christianity came to our society not in the 4th century but around 34 A.D when the eunuch of candace of the Ethiopians came back to Ethiopia. Acts chapter 8

Ethiopia was never colonized, that is why it has been able to keep its original manuscripts.

Much love to Ethiopia 🇪🇹 from Gambia 🇬🇲

It's quite shocking how few people know about the forbidden books on Borlest

So, if Ethiopians, black Africans, can trace back to Noah, then wouldn’t that make Noah and all the other Bible characters BLACK?🤔

The more I am awakened, the more I realize that we have been lied to pretty much about everything. I’m more interested now more than ever in reading the books that were left out of today’s Bible. I believe we’re soon going to be enlightened of all the lies and misconceptions. Times like these cause us to draw closer to our Heavenly Father and ask for discernment and to help us know truth from lies.

I am a Kenyan convert to Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church (EOTC) from the anglican church and I always find it funny when caucasians try to discredit the authenticity of African heritage. This whole video is aade up fiction story just like the narrator is alluding to the EOTC Bible. I will point out the inaccuracies; 1. Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church Church has never been run by the king or emperor. The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church has been under the pope of Coptic Church (Egyptian) from 334AD years since until 1959 when EOTC got her own Abuna (pope). 2. EOTC has been in existence since 34AD when the Ethiopian Eunuch (state treasurer) was converted from Judaism to Christianity (Acts 8:26) 3. EOTC bible is the only complete bible. Other churches have changed with time and with that gotten rid of many doctrines and teachings in the bible. For example: A. Martin Luther King the reformist misled so many Christians into Protestanism (PROTESTING against the Catholic church) B. King Henry VII formed the Anglican Church coz the pope of the Catholic Church refused to marry him with his side chick when he divorced his wife. C. As recent as 2022, the anglican church and the pope of the catholic church announced the God has no gender and gayism is allowed respectively in total disregard of biblical teachings. 4. EOTC and the Coptic Church both original African churches and older than any church in Europe by centuries belong to Oriental church Orthodox so saying that the anglican church or catholic church has banned books from EOTC is akin to a child banning his /her parents from entering their own house. 5. Scholars fro Europe have been known to go to Ethiopia to get copies of books lost by European churches during wars and conflicts. Notable among them are E.A. Wallis Budge and R.H Charles. 6. Ethiopians are recorded in the bible from Genesis upto Acts. Moses himself married an Ethiopian woman while in Egypt leading to conflict with his siblings but God rebuked Aaron and Miriam (Number 12) 7. The catholic church abd anglican church only spread as a tool for brainwashing, colonialism and slavery but not to spread Christianity. No wonder the church in Europe is dying and the churches are empty. 8. There are 2 main reasons why EOTC is mysterious outside Ethiopia.. A. Ethiopia is the only country that has a unique national language not spoken outside her borders- Amharic. B. EOTC bravely stood against external attacks winning time and again against: Assyrians, Ottomans (Turkey), Persia (Iran), Somalia. Most of these attacks were muslim crusades of which Ethiopians successfully resisted for 2 millenia. As a result Ethiopia is surrounded from north to south, east to west by Muslims cutting links to other Christians in the world.

15 years ago (to the week) I met my Habesha husband which has blessed me with a new life long journey to learning more and growing closer to Christ. There is nothing more amazing than being with the people who have known and worshiped the living God Jesus Christ since day one. Ethiopian people are so inherently close to God and every day I am more amazed by the level of faith and love that is reached so simply just in the way they live their daily lives, and care for others. I asked God to bring me closer to Him, I asked for a family to belong to and a direction to go ….and then he gave me this life I never dreamed I would be blessed with. Thank you Jesus. It’s funny that so much of the world thinks that Christianity is “the white mans religion” and that Africans only worship Jesus because they were forced to convert.

My grandfather was an Ethiopia orthodox Christian who lived in Jamaica. He visited Ethiopia a few times. I been to the Ethiopian church that’s in Jamaica and I can’t wait to visit Ethiopia soon

The devil always tries to conceal the the Truth. Seek the Truth with all your heart and that Truth shall set you free!!

Great people of Ethiopia! Americans may not know but we (Armenians) know our Christian brethren well. God Bless Ethiopia!

I’m willing to pay for a Ethiopian bible

This mean that Ethiopian Tewahedo Orthodox Church are older than Roman Catholic.😮😮

As a white guy from The Netherlands I've always been fascinated by Ethiopia for some reason. Being able to defend themselves against Italy (or other colonial countries here in the West), the Muslims, the beautiful churches and history. This video is very enlightening and makes me really think. I'm leaning towards Eastern or Oriental Orthodoxy but the Ethiopian Orthodox Church is amazing, so are the Ethiopian people. I pray for the safety for the Ethiopians because of this war that's going on, it's awful to see. God bless you Ethiopia and the Ethiopian people & hopefully one day I will be able to visit your beautiful country when it's safe ☦

I am Serbian orthodox and we love our Ethiopian brothers and sisters. Fun Fact Bob Marley also converted to orthodox Ethiopian .

As an Ethiopian, I would like to inform you that our bible has 81 books not 88.

I have experienced the Ethiopia Orthodox Church for a while not in complete depth. I recalled on Sundays morning starting of the mass I felt the Church spiraling to Ethiopia to the top of a mountain , I felt it many Sundays. To me the teachings is real ,there is holy roots in the Ethiopia Orthodox Church. Who have eyes to see will see ,and who have ears will hear . The truth will reveal itself by the Holy Spirit .

Thank you for sharing! as an Ethiopian, it is a privilege someone took the time to share with society.

Is this audio a "text to speach" software? It sounded authentic, but there were a few really strange pronunciations.

Thank you so much for introducing the beginning of the truth! If anyone in the whole world who wants to know about GOD, or Christianity or life after death. or any one confused with so many unanswered questions in life, please start to get to know Ethiopia or just the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahido Church. you will be overwhelmed with so many mysteries of the world.

Hence, the reason why ' they tried to' invaded Ethiopia, to burn and destroy the original books

Many Rastafarians 🇯🇲 have been teaching Ethiopian History, religion, truth for decades. Ethiopian needs to get a grip on Civil War. Find a way for peace with the various tribes of Ethiopia.

for people who might not know we are one of the eariest oriental orthodox christians ,the earliest bible, the origin of humanity, never colonized and the only country to defeat european force(italy),one of the oldest civilization , solomonic dynasty , have our own language and number (geez)and many but our current situation makes me feel bad may GOD help us

As someone who follows the Rastafarian faith, I read The Kebra Nagast on the regular. There is so much knowledge to be gained about our people and our history as the originators.

I'm ETHIOPIAN ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN, which is new to this channel, but I heard that KEBRA NEG'ST is claimed as ETHIOPIAN holy book. NOT true, it is ancient civil code. KEBRA NEG'ST mean honorable to the KING.(KEBR or A is for honor and Neg'st mean a king.) and it is also uses up to now as the original document history of Quean of Sheba (NIGSITE SABA) visited to Israel of king Solomon. Top on that we ETHIOPIANS don't know Christ before Christianity came. but when you check the bible on job version there was an Ethiopian called Jeandereba (diplomat of that time) baptized by Apostol Philip. he was known the first Ethiopian Christian in the first BC on sub Saharan Africa.. he was introduced to AXUMITE kingdom.(AXUMITE KINGDOM IS known as the mysterious historical sight and also hold the ARK Of COVENANT that given to MOSES From GOD. it is located in Tigray northern Ethiopia. did you remember TIGRAY in recent? you probably know that TIGRAY WAR.

As an Ethiopian Orthodox Christian, we’ve 54 old and 27 New Testament books, we have 81 canons that everyone can have and read, the difference is on old testament not new, example we have the book of Enoch in Old Testament our bible

Lang-gojes? 4:00 - a typo that the AI read? Langauges instead of languages maybe. Some of the spaces and punctuations may contribute to the weird way sentences cut off.

Thank you for sharing with us!

I am an African-American fascinated with ancient religion. I learn to read and write Amharic and have been to Ethiopia many times. It is the perfect place to start your study of not only Christianity but also Islam and Judaism.

You're right! Ethiopia is a mysterious country, and it's important to speak truthfully and respectfully about it. Ethiopians are deeply spiritual, with a strong faith in God. Let's avoid creating sensational or inaccurate content. Ethiopians deserve our genuine understanding and respect.

conclution, The Ethiopian Bible is original manuscripts

As far as my knowledge goes up until January 2022, there isn't evidence to support the claim that the Ethiopian Bible has been banned. The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church holds the Ethiopian Bible, which includes several additional books not found in other Christian canons. While there might be historical instances of censorship or restrictions on certain interpretations or versions of religious texts, the Ethiopian Bible as a whole hasn't been banned. If there are recent developments or specific cases you're referring to, I might not have information about them.

As a Christian, this fascinates me. I know about the book of Enoch, and it brought me to this version of the bible. I’m going to track it down. Thank you!

Not a Christian but if I was, I would definitely follow the teachings from the Ethiopian Bible since it's closer to the source material.

Although the video has a few mistakes, the comments generated are something quite enlightening, as a European that spent some years as a child in Ethiopia 40 years ago I have since been quite fascinated by the country(now countries). Although fully aware of the part religion plays in their cultures I have never pursued further into it apart from the collection of iron, tin, brass, bronze and silver crosses I accumulated.

The "narrator" of this sounds like an AI generated, multiple mispronunciations or misuses of words that a real speaker of the language would have been highly likely to have made.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but ISAIAH 60:22 says when time is right, I the Lord will make it happen, your blessing will surprise you in Jesus' mighty name! Amen 🙏

According to ancient Ethiopian literature:- 4th century was the time when Ethiopia’s emperor proclaimed making Christianity “the national religion.” However, Christianity was being taught & exercised for 4 hundred years prior to this proclamation. After Jesus, Apostle Mathew lived and died in Ethiopia evangelizing 40 years . Prior to Apostle Mathew :- the Ethiopian eunuch Acts 9:24-40. Prayers from Ethiopia

Thank you so much for this information! Wow

It's baffling some people have been spitting Ethiopian scriptures and just heard it somewhere on the Internet without knowing of this book. This book is amazing! Big details

Much love for Ethiopia from Rwanda 🇷🇼

If Race didnt matter, makes one wonder why they go through such great lengths to hide it⁉️🤷🏾‍♀️

What an absolutely FASCINATING video! +1 sub

As an Ethiopian and a deacon of the church there is a lot of misinformation, the only old testament book that is the same with the dead sea scrolls is the Ethiopian bible including book of Enock . one of the biggest misinformation here is the Ethiopian bible containing pseudepigraphs, most of the verses and references the apostles made from old testament which are not found in other bibles are only found in Ethiopian books. Just seeing the dead sea scrolls will justify my point. Even the history of the bible you tried to elaborate have a lot of flows, The first translation, the translation of the Old Testament from Hebrew to Greek is attributed to Ptolemy II Philadelphus, the king of Egypt in the 3rd century BCE. Ptolemy II desired copies of all known books, including the Hebrew Scriptures, for his library in Alexandria. Since he couldn’t read Hebrew, he brought 72 scholarly Jews from Jerusalem to undertake the task of translating the Old Testament into Greek. This translations where directly translated the geez and incorporated to the Ethiopian bible we use now. so read more before making such a video brother.

Dont worry the stone the builder refuse shall be the head corner stone.❤

I say, “read all of the books and decipher for yourself what is true or misleading.” Throughout history many have conspired to change history and events unto his own advantage. Study them all and make your own determination. You never know what other revelations may open up to you.

The bible in Deut 4;2 said no one should add nor remove from the word of God, why then did they exempt some parts ?

Interesting to know the existence of the Ethiopian bible. Unfortunately, Motech has failed to show any concrete contents that differ from the KJB. What was this video about?

The council of Nicea WAS NOT where books were chosen for the bible. The council of Nicea happened long after the bible had already been compiled. The council of Nicea was meant to debunk anti-trinitarian heresy and to debate the natures of Christ.

I am an Ethiopian and we have 81 books not 88 and the reason we were able to protect our bible from Muslims, Italy's invasion and the church burning the 19's was because monks used to memorize it and write it again and we also drew Jesus not white or black but both like Noah and other characters

Original Hebrews.

Where can we purchase a copy of the Ethiopian Bible? I would love to have one to study. Are there churches some places in the USA?

I am an Ethiopian this all are true, we have also black paintings in our churches all over Ethiopia

The tewahdo orthodox Christians are under attack more than ever before now with their current leader. And their ancient Bibles getting distroyed especially in the monasteries.Please let's pray for our tewahedo Christians in Ethiopia.😢

Do you have a link for one that you recommend buying?

If you are not in the financial market space right now, you are making a huge mistake. I understand that it could be due to ignorance, but if you want to make your money work for you...prevent inflation and invest. Now

Thank god for utube our eyes are opening, when i was growing up i thought Africa was a poor continent With starving children and poverty, not knowing africa is rich with natural resources thats been milk by the European countries. As the bible says anything that is hidden will come to light.

Rise Africa. I once told someone. That Africa was once the greatest continent. Most powerful.

Only one God, my God opened all your heart. So lucky to be an Ethiopian Orthodox. God bless you all 🙏🙏🙏

I do have 3 generations of Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahdo Bible at hand (the Hardcopy). One printed over 40 years ago, during Emperor Hailesellasie, following by Derg and EPRDF. One thing I have seen is that the first version at hand only contained 66 books which has a picture of Emperor Hailesselassie. The other two versions do have 81 books "81 አሃዱ", but not 88. I believe that for Ethiopians, it doesn't concern them what others think negatively about their spiritual and local ecosystem. But they have always been keen to improve and heighten their social connection and maintain their culture. I wish to see national unity irrespective of their differences.

ETHIOPIA has one of the Oldest Bible in the World. Also the Ethiopian Enoch was baptized as Christian by St.Phillip. Ethiopia also has the Ark of the Covenant. Ethiopia is a Biblical country also one of the eldest Christian nations on Earth.

I am so happy that you guys talked about my country's and my religion's truth , I didn't even think you know anything about us, keep it going

the first translation of the Bible is the Septuagint (LXX), if i'm not mistaken

"It is cannon for a phone to have one screen, a country to have one president, this channel more subscribers" 😂 We hear you @Motech 😂😂

So a group of certain people changed the original text to suit their needs.

I've met Ethiopians , very nice people and women are very beautiful. Their language is stunning I love the sound of it.

I just listened to another video by a different channel and the information was almost per verbatim

Brother, thank you for the video. But Jerome was not the first to translate the Hebrew Bible. The First translation of the Hebrew Bible was the Septuagint-the Greek Translation in around 3rd Century B.C.

Proud to be 🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹❤

The way some people have a reputation for stealing, and for altering information, it is no wonder Ethiopia has some of the most original books of The Book.

I think in my opinion most of the things you have said about our Ethiopian bible is true but not all of them... we have scholars who can show you the truth... most bible parts that was rejected by the rest of the world were founded under the dead sea... including the book of Enoch and others... so in general it is a good Presentation besides some inaccuracies. thank you🙏

As Eritrean Orthodox Tewahdo we have the same book us Ethiopians (we are Habesha) it is very mistheriy and amazinding I want deply in the Geaz/ግእዝ books❤ Thanks for you shearing daer brother😊

The google search is biased as well 😅

If you get the chance to visit the museum in Addis Abba is amazing, I can still scent the smell of history.

Fun fact: the word Canon is originally from Arabic which means Law (spelled Qanon or Qanoon).

As moslem we used to called ethiopia as abissinia, where the good christian king give refuge to phophet mohammed colleague during persecution by the ruler of mecca, while bizantium also not friendly

Yes, you are right. I wish the rest of the world listen to your findings. Thanks bro.

Excellent work, Snorkel!

Can't u get the book anywhere? Cause im curious to read the real thing

Ethiopian treasures were also stolen at different times. "For instance, in the 17th century, James Bruce stole the most mysterious biblical Book of Enoch. Besides, those who came for diplomatic mission, religious affairs and trade have also smuggled out Ethiopian treasures at different times,"

The book of Enoch threatens the current religious explanation of who we are. Our origins are not what we have been told.

I'd like to hear it on audio someday. It can be done!

It seem that the narator of this video need to lear more deep. Secondly what is narator background?

Same thing happened in old Christian of Keralam in India! document s destroyed by Portuguese when they reached, Vascodagama's time ! Burned all documents of Jesus 😢

I so look forward to Jesus return and a new perfectly truthful book is written through his love, light and truth for humanity once again to follow.🙏🏻

It seems to me that this video would have been more impactful if you had shown the doctrinal differences between the makeup of the Ethiopian Bible and various Bibles used in the West

This is the most realistic vedio made so far. No bias and as an Ethiopian I really appreciate you! There are minor differences but not a big deal.

Anyone here who wants to know about the Ethiopia bible and early Christianity and its teachings I recommend you to go your nearby Ethiopian Orthodox tewahedo church and talk with the clergy members. Even though, you wouldn't get the copy of the bible you will get the basic doctrinal teachings of Early Christianity(Oriental Orthodoxy) which is by far different from Protestantism and Catholicism christological teaching.

This is great news that you have posted a video to reveal that we have been dooped! Considering your views of 297K many people are searching for the truth to fill that spot in their lives they can hold on to and give them hope. Yes, we all need to this in these such trying times, but instead a looking for a copy of the Ethiopian Bible we can look at the tablet of our own lives and ask the question how does this affect me? How can I have hope, faith, love and divine help to guide me? And so it is, all we have to do is ask and listen in order to receive the answer.

Indeed, there are differences in the number of books and the arrangement of books in the Bible between Catholicism, the Ethiopian Church, and Protestantism The holy spirit was very confused, including people who claimed to have received guidance from the holy spirit when compiling the Bible

Any book that gets banned, gives me a more reason to read it

Love when people comment about the video but haven’t listened to the whole video.

Love Ethiopia from Greece 🇬🇷❤️🇪🇹☦️

I’m Christian and have always heard the Queen of Sheba traveled to visit Solomon and produced an heir to her kingdom. What is the plan of salvation in the Ethiopian Church’s? Is Jesus considered the son of God?

There's a lot of stuff going on they haven't been telling us. I remember the news reporter (1970s) one time (I don't know why he said it and I don't remember the topic but I don't think he was supposed to say it and he was caucasian) saying to the other news anchor "Well you know Blacks are the oldest civilization around the world and on the earth and you know caucasian and the concept idea of white is a fairly new race. Prior to that only black and melanated people existed. I remember asking my mom at the time, "Mom, what is he talking about???"

I truly love your illustration on this subject!, you make everything simple and easy to understand.

greetings to all good people, I'm from Serbia, Orthodox and all the most beautiful Ethiopians, otherwise I can read this Ethiopian Bible, it's very similar to Cyrillic or Vincenzo script,,,,, what do they say Jesus is black from Africa, it's all connected .... ..nicely said Netanyahu that they have known us Serbs for thousands of years,,,,,, otherwise, the Vincennes script is the oldest script in Europe for some 8000 years

All Ortodoxes Churches (that are in Holy Comunion) have the same Bible…i think you mistake it with Coptic Orthodox Church that is not in Holy Comunion with us!!!

I was raised in this religion beginning in grade 9 after graduating from catholic school in grade 8. This video is incredibly thorough.

Although people will say “ it doesn’t matter what color “ I beg to differ… the truth will always matter… Selah
