Selected Speeches of Haile Selassie ISelected Speeches of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I     

The most revealing way to begin to understand who or what Ras Tafari is, is to read and study the Selected Speeches of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie First. These speeches portray the breadth of the Emperor's vision. They detail the persistence, the determination and the unflagging drive with which he pursued the application of “modern Ethiopianism,” His spirit, His child. Sadly, modern and past 20th history and historians have all failed to fully testify to the Truth that His Majesty represented as the ‘Man of the Millennium.’ The Emperor's idealism, coupled with his insistence on transforming his country, both on the domestic and international fronts, his courage in the face of adversity, his unchallenged perspicacity, his keen sense in evaluating world events, his unfailing respect for principles, and his abiding faith in humanity should make this volume a ready-reference on the history of modern Ethiopia. – the Imperial Ethiopian government, 1967.

The Queen of Sheba And Her Only Son Menyelek, complete translation of the Kebra Nagast by Sir E. A. Wallis Budge The Queen of Sheba And Her Only Son Menyelek, complete translation of the Kebra Nagast by Sir E. A. Wallis Budge

ETHIOPIAN LITERATURE / Biblical & African Studies The Queen of Sheba And Her Only Son Menyelek is a complete English translation of the famous Ethiopian work The Kebra Nagast - "The Glory of the Kings of Ethiopia." Compiled by a Ethiopian priest who translated into Ge'ez, the liturgical and holy language of the Ethiopic Church in the 6th century AD, from and based upon much older material, mainly in Coptic, the language of Ancient Egypt. The Kebra Nagast is a remarkable mixture or fusion of pre-Masoretic biblical text, Hebraic legends and African Judeo-Christian traditions; some historical and some of a mythic quality, derived from the Old Testament manuscripts and the later African Rabbinic writings and from Egyptian (both Kamo-Semitic and Hebraic-Christian), Arabian, Muhammadan and indigenous Ethiopian sources. The principle theme of the work is the descent of the Kings of Ethiopia from the union of Solomon, King of Israel, and the "Queen of the South."

Ethiopic Grammar by August Dillmann; new preface by Ras Iadonis TafariEthiopic Grammar by August Dillmann; new preface by Ras Iadonis Tafari  

ETHIOPIC GRAMMAR By August Dillmann, translated by Carl Bezold; new preface by Ras Iadonis Tafari. The renewed interest taken in Ethiopic / Semitic studies in general within these recent years, and in particular the continued issue from the Press of numerous and important Ethiopic texts,— encourage the hope that an English edition of the leading Ethiopic Grammar may prove not wholly unwelcome to English-speaking students at the present time. Few competent judges will challenge the claim of Dillmann's “Grammar” to be thus described. No doubt a long time has elapsed since its first publication, and much investigation has been applied to the language during the interval; but it may be questioned whether any of the essential principles laid down in Dillmann's work have been affected by these labours, otherwise than by way of confirmation, or whether any facts of really fundamental grammatical importance have been added to our knowledge.

Israel's Debt To Egypt by Edward H. SugdenIsrael's Debt To Egypt by Edward H. Sugden  

ISRAEL'S DEBT TO EGYPT By Edward H. Sugden, was originally published in 1928 by The Epworth Press in London & written in English. The New & Revised Edition published by the Lion of Judah Society (LOJS) contains additional commentary and illustrations, along Publisher's notes by Ras Iadonis Tafari. The book explores the historical contacts between Egypt and Israel, especially the influence of Egypt on the religion of Israel, i.e. language, literature; arts and crafts. Moses, the Lawgiver, was educated in Egypt and “was learned in all the wisdoms of the Egyptians.” Moses possessed an excellent knowledge of the Egyptian Religion. Wallis Budge says “the depth of his knowledge of Egyptian magico-religious ritual is proved by the closeness with which he followed it in constructing the Tabernacle, and in the regulations which he drew up concerning offerings, the equipment of the Tabernacle and the official dress of the priests.”

HEBREW HIEROGLYPHICS: Hebrew Characters Derived From The Hieroglyphics by Mr. John LambHEBREW HIEROGLYPHICS: Hebrew Characters Derived From The Hieroglyphics by Mr. John Lamb  

 

EGYPTOLOGY/ HEBREW STUDIES/ BIBLE John Lamb’s 1835 Hebrew Hieroglyphics contains and explores the original pictures applied to the interpretation of various words and passages in the sacred writings of the Hebrew Bible, and especially the history of the creation and the fall of man. Much has been learnt and discovered since Mr. Lamb first presented his findings and speculations; however, his work still remains relevant and adds to our understanding of one of the earliest and still most noteworthy, for its time and substance. Mr. Lamb successfully makes his point, by comparison after comparison, and adding Hebrew Scriptures to his interpretations of the Hieroglyphic Characters that is both relevant and profoundly insightful. We hope the reader and student of this subject will be inspired, as we have been, to follow-up on some or many of the initial claims made by the said Author.

THE WITNESS OF THE STARS by Dr. E.W. BullingerTHE WITNESS OF THE STARS

by Dr. E.W. Bullinger       

The book entitled, “THE WITNESS OF THE STARS,” by Dr. E.W. Bullinger contains, from a Western Gentile branching of the Judeo-Christian perspective, in principle and in fact, one of the earliest, quite extensive for its 1893 original publication, (and now clearly a most faithful summary of the received precepts and traditions concerning the celestial witness), and a credible testimony to the “glorious Gospel of the Christ,” as it was known in Ancient times. These earliest beliefs and primordial faith and expectations were recorded and preserved from the mythological Inner-African Genesis of Humanity documented in the Denderah of the Egypts to latter-day Greek reinterpreted mythologies, all without doubt traced to Messianic hopes and aspirations of native and the primitive peoples of the world. There are many prophecies in the Bible whose proper interpretation depend on “The Witness of the Stars” in order to accurately be known.
