The Ethiopian Bible is composed of 81 books, including the Old and New Testaments, as well as additional apocryphal works. It contains some of the most important and influential texts in Christian tradition, including the Book of Genesis, the Psalms, and the Gospel of John.

When most Western readers hear “Bible,” they think 66 books. The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church presents a universe of 81 to 84+ books. You aren’t just getting a few extra chapters. You are getting an entirely different literary ecosystem.

While a single, authoritative PDF containing all 88 books in English is rare due to the complexity of translating ancient Ge'ez, several updated digital versions and comprehensive resources are available: Ancient Holy Writings - Complete Apocrypha (PDF)
