Ethiopian Orthodox Bible, Amharic names, Ge’ez transliteration, biblical onomastics, PDF resources, Fidel script. 1. Introduction The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church (EOTC) has a unique biblical tradition. Its canon includes 81 books (e.g., 1 Enoch, 2 Esdras, Jubilees) unlike the Protestant 66. Names of biblical persons in Ethiopian tradition are not mere translations; they undergo centuries of phonetic, morphological, and orthographic evolution through three languages: Hebrew/Aramaic (original), Greek (Septuagint influence), Ge’ez (classical Ethiopic), and Amharic (modern ecclesiastical and vernacular use).
