The Ethiopian Bible is widely considered the oldest and most complete Christian bible in existence. Unlike the standard King James Version, which contains 66 books, or the Catholic Bible with 73, the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church canon includes a staggering 81 to 88 books. For theologians, historians, and faithful readers, finding a version of this expansive scripture allows for convenient study of texts that have been excluded from the Western biblical canon for centuries. What Makes the Ethiopian Bible Unique? The "88 books" designation refers to the broader canon of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. This collection includes all the books found in the Protestant and Catholic Old Testaments, but adds significantly to the apocryphal and deuterocanonical literature.
