For centuries, the Western church—both Protestant and Catholic—has debated the contents of the Bible. Protestants hold to 66 books, while Catholics include the Apocrypha, totaling 73. The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, however, preserved a canon that includes books largely lost to the Western world.

The Book of Enoch ( Metsehafe Henok ), the Book of Jubilees ( Kufale ), and Josippon ( Metsehafe Yosef ben Koryon ).

Before the Ethiopian Bible, the Book of Enoch was lost to the West for centuries. When European travelers brought it back in the 1700s, scholars were shocked. It contains the "Son of Man" theology that Jesus directly quotes. Reading 1 Enoch explains the origin of demons (Genesis 6) in vivid detail.
