The Ethiopian Orthodox Church's tradition on the Holy Cross
by Getatchew Haile
The Ethiopian Orthodox Church?s Tradition on the Holy Cross' is a volume that combines both ancient and derived Ethiopic literature on the Cross. The work brings together all the major sources from manuscripts preserved in different monasteries and edited and translated into English. The sources include homilies by Minas bishop of Aksum, John Chrysostom, James of Sarug, as well as a number of anonymous authors, all translated from Greek during the Aksumite era.0The derived literature includes works by the famous men of the pen, including the fifteenth-century 'Abba' Giyorgis of Sägla and Emperor Zär?a Ya?eqob. Poetic hymns to the Cross constitute a part of the collection, one of these being glorification of the Cross by 'Abba' Bahrey, author of several important works.
