This Ethiopian text, first edited by August Dillmann in 1866[1] is formed by:[2]

  • the Book of Lamentations, in its five chapters as in the Hebrew Bible
  • some addition to the Book of Lamentation: the epistle to the captives (Lam. 6) and the prophecy against Pashhur (Lam. 7 v. 1–5))
  • a text very close to the Greek text of 4 Baruch
  • some additional verses of Lamentation (Lam. 7 v. 6–11 v. 63)

gollark: Nuclear war is not capable of destroying the Earth, as it's quite big. A 999-magnitude earthquake would probably, as it is a log scale.
gollark: More properly known as a geometer, actually.
