The Books of The Lord or The Books of The Covenant (1 Dominos and 2 Dominos) in the Ethiopic broader canon constitute a fascinating locus for the study of early Christian liturgical, ethical, and Christological traditions in Ethiopian Christianity. Over time, scholars have recognized that 1 Dominos closely corresponds to the Testamentum Domini (the “Testament of Our Lord”) preserved in Syriac/Greek traditions, while 2 Dominos aligns with the Epistula Apostolorum (the “Epistle of the Apostles”). Under this identification, the Ethiopic canon effectively relabels or repackages these two separate works under a unified rubric.
