An Absolutely Stunning Bible Story from Ethiopia– Oil Painting on Canvas. Very Large: Approximately 38” x 76” This beautiful bible story painting was ... morepurchased in Addis Ababa in 2004– we got it in a little shop that we often visited near the famous Tiatu Hotel. The shop owner and artist signed the painting. Kristos Solomon 2004. The oil painting was a work in progress when we first viewed it. So we returned later to buy it. Although I do not believe that Ato Solomon is a very well known artist, his grandfather was quite respected and we own a few of his paintings on skin. This style of painting is very traditional. And but it’s rare to see a newer piece like this so very well executed. The colors are vibrant and the details marvelous! I hate to part with it. But it’s been rolled up and carefully stored for the last 9 years– it needs a large display area that will do it justice! A gorgeous example of Ethiopian art.

Ancient Ethiopian Coptic Bible Leaf
Ancient Ethiopian Coptic Hand Written Bible Leaf. On goatskin vellum with red illuminations on both sides. Written in Ge'ez. These leaves were originally hand stitched between covers of clay tablets. Later hand carved covers of wood were used instead of clay. Originating in Egypt, the Christianization of Abyssinia(Ethiopia) took place in the early Fourth century. The earliest Ge'ez documents date from that period. The language ceased to be used as a spoken language before the year 1000, but it continues to this day to be used as the official written language of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. In written form these handwritten Bible leaves were produced from the fourth century through the mid-1800's so they can be very difficult to date. This leaf is remarkably similar in appearance, style and coloring to museum collections from ... morethe early 1700's, and I am estimating its age at approximately 300 years, though it could be much older. The leaf has been identified as a portion of the Book of Psalms. We are full time autograph and document dealers registered with the UACC(036) And members of the Manuscript Society.

ETHIOPIAN Coptic BIBLE Manuscript ANTIQUE Handwritten GE'EZ Vellum OCCULT Psalms
You are bidding on a true piece of Biblical history! Presenting a handwritten Coptic Ethiopian Bible/Psalm Book w/ great aging throughout! Written in the Ethiopic(Ge'ez) script. A Semitic language that is no longer spoken, but is still used for liturgical and other religious purposes by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. The subject of these"Bibles" are generally always Christian, but actual content varies. Dating Ethiopian manuscripts is very difficult as scribes copied old monastic manuscripts using the same materials as had been used for centuries, and have been as old as the 14th century; this carries many examples of an older age within, with original vellum animal skin pages, faded, browned, stained and aged, as shown, bound in hand sewn and attached wooden boards, wrapped in an attractive well worn and colorful fabric wrap. ... moreWe could loosely guess this one originated sometime c1700- late 1800s, with wear to the vellum as an indicator; the wraps probably newer, c1850-1900s. A majority of the text are incantations to protect the owner from supernatural forces. Combined with what looks to be the Psalms of David. Written in red/black, as shown, the red indicating sacred words spoken by the savior. The Bible also includes a few crudely drawn native icons at the rear, with a few examples as shown in the pics. This example is bound in square wooden boards. Fabric wrapped; the covers tied through with twine with a leather cover on the spine, with some loss to the fabric. There is some definitive age to the interior of this example, and some staining, notable water damage and warping, and more, which is normal for these rare gems; this one undoubtedly hundreds of years old. There are 88 leaves/176 pages in this, as shown. There is also some interesting marginalia, as shown ion the pics, undoubtedly newer in origin, but again, in Ge'ez. Obtained in an online auction direct from Ethiopia. Bible measures 6.25" x 4.5" x 2" thick. A True treasure. These have sold for $1,000s of dollars, and t

It was also known as Himyarite language. And the second source was from Egypt during the Hyksos ruling. The Hyksos were Semitic tribes; invaded old Egypt and ruled for 400 years. When they were expelled out of Egypt they fled to Nuba. Ethiopia. And Canaan. The Christian Kingdom of Aksum(old Ethiopia) had occupied Yemen in the early centuries A.D. The Ge’ez language is a combination of the two; the Semitic and the old Ethiopian languages. It was vanished with time and nowadays is only used in biblical and Christian Orthodox ... moreschools in old Ethiopia. What you see here is an old leaf from a Bible or Psalms book. The script is written on a vellum. Calf or goat skin with bold black and red ink. The red ink is usually reserved for the name of God or Saints. Some scripts vanished with years; dirt and heavy foxing exist as well. This is the largest leaf of an Ethiopian bible I have ever seen. This is 1 leaf with 2 pages; and it measures 10.2" x 7.8" This leaf. As most vellum, has a missing small pieces and contains some stitches, but the text is not affected. I do not know this language. So I am not sure about the exact date or content; but according to some experts and references, these bibles are not dated and vary from 200 to 600 years in age; only God knows.

2 Leaves Ethiopian Christian Ge'ez Bible Handwritten Manuscript on Thick Vellum
Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE This auction is for two rare illuminated Ge'ez handwritten manuscript leaves. Written on vellum( not paper) With writing on both sides. The vellum animal skin shows some discoloration and wrinkles. Especially around the edges of the page, due to age, water damage, and liturgical use over the centuries. Also notice the difference between the small black hair follicle marks on the"hair" side and the very smooth"skin" side of the vellum, which is often not flat but wrinkled. It should be pointed out that the series of vertical pin-prick holes in the vellum in the outer margin were made as a guide to the scribe for the placement and alignment of each line. The size is about 4 3/4 in. x 6 in. T hese two sheets contain a total of twelve(12) red lluminated letters. As well as ... morenumerous beautiful and unusual"cross" designs or symbols that have red-ink and black-ink marks and probably indicate the beginning of a new verse(see. Especially, the first two scanned images) I do not read the Ethiopian Ge'ez language and do not know the age of these leaves, but I would estimate them as early 19th century to mid- 1 9th century. These are original handwritten manuscript leaves on vellum. Not modern reproductions. Their authenticity is 100% guaranteed. Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE Guarantee of Authenticity.

We're a charity and we have to raise over £10.5m each year to run three hospices and our extensive'at home' services. Serving the whole of east Kent we provide free specialist palliative care. Support, and respite for our patients, their families and carers. Description The content of these books has been examined by Steve Delamarter. Professor of Old Testament at George Fox University, Newburg. Oregon USA, who has kindly provided us with the details of content. Images have been accepted into their Ethiopian Manuscript Imaging Project. 4¾” x 7½” Wooden covers. Bound with string containing 46 pages of goatskin vellum(some blank of which several have student’s informal notes& doodles) Burnt wood finish. Handwritten Ge’ez text in black& red ink with no illumination or patterns Prof Delamarter’s description: ... moreThe manuscript contains what are known as the general epistles of the Christian New Testament. These include the books of 1 and 2 Peter. 1, 2, and 3 John, James, and Jude. It does not contain the book of the Revelation of Saint John which sometimes is included in the same manuscripts with these books. On the last page of the manuscript there appears to have been some sort of text like a colophon(columns 2. Lower half) but it has been effaced. Only a few letters are legible. It may be possible to draw out the text through the use of infrared imaging, but perhaps not. If it ever comes into my hands, we will try to do that. Finally. The dating of the manuscript can be fixed only on paleographic grounds since there are no historical notes or colophons remaining in the manuscript. The paleographical indicators point rather strongly towards the latter part of the nineteenth and early part of the twentieth centuries. It is not an old copy, nor is it well copied, nor in possession of any of the other indicators that it may have come from a high social location. Packaging We take pride in packing well in order to protect your purchase. Other than cartons. We use all-new professional qual
