THE OCTATEUCH IN ETHIOPIC, ACCORDING TO THE TEXT OF THE PARIS CODEX, WITH THE VARIANTS OF FIVE OTHER MANUSCRIPTS Compiled and Edited By ENNO LITTMANN & Dr. J. OSCAR BOYD. PART II EXODUS AND LEVITICUS; aka BIBLIOTHECA ABESSINICA STUDIES CONCERNING THE LANGUAGES, LITERATURE AND HISTORY OF ABYSSINIA EDITED BY Dr. E. LITTMANN "the only really ancient codex that remains to us of the octateuch, a codex of the time of Yekuno Amlak, which certainly could give us very important variants" We, the present edition publishers, find no better words to express what is contained herein, that to quote an excerpt of the utterance of H.I.M. Haile Selassie I, our God-Father, the King of kings of Ethiopia: "Ethiopia, an island of Christianity, is recorded in history as having received first the Old Testament, and then the New Testament earlier than most of the countries of the world. When, in Old Testament times, she received the Law, and when, in New Testament times, she received the Gospel, she ensured that the Scriptures were translated into the ancient language of Ge'ez. From those times to this, various books both of spiritual and material profit have periodically been compiled and written in Ge'ez." Amen and Amen. Lion of Judah Society Press
