The Ethiopian Bible—particularly within the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church—is one of the most expansive and ancient Biblical canons in Christianity. Preserving texts in Ge’ez, a liturgical language dating back over a thousand years, it includes books that disappeared from or were never adopted into other Christian traditions. Among these are works like 1 Enoch, Jubilees, and The Shepherd of Hermas, which provide early Jewish and Christian teachings that offer a wider view of ancient beliefs

The Book of Jubilees, which is part of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church’s canon, measures time in cycles of 49 years, also known as jubilees. These cycles are divided into seven weeks of years, each with seven years. The Book of Jubilees covers biblical history from creation to the giving of the law on Mount Sinai, recounting events in these 49-year intervals | Rastafari TV Network
