This is a piece about the sacred text, the "Kebra Nagast", in Ethiopian Orthodox Christianity. It shows a different side of Christianity that was apparently ignored by Catholic church when putting together their Bible. This is interesting linguistically as well as culturally. As Ethiopia has many newer forms of Christianity. This kind solidifies Ethiopian Orthodoxy as a kind of cultural baseline due to it's deep history and enduring legacy.

The text's relevance to Rastafarians is also discussed. Pretty interesting.
