What if some of the oldest and most remarkable Gospel manuscripts in the world were not preserved in Rome or Constantinople but in Africa?
For centuries, the Garima Gospels remained a quiet treasure, safeguarded within an Ethiopian monastery. Today, they stand as one of the earliest surviving illustrated Gospel books offering a powerful window into the origins of Christianity, the endurance of faith, and Africa’s often overlooked role in preserving sacred history.
In The Complete Book of the Garima Gospels, you will embark on a rich and eye-opening journey through time uncovering the story behind these extraordinary manuscripts and the world that produced them.
