A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The attention of the Church Missionary Society has for many years been directed toward that interesting country, which forms the subject of the present volume. In the plans which were formed, now twenty years ago, for the Mediterranean Mission, it was considered that the evangelizing of the nations adjacent to that inland sea was a work intimately connected with the revival and reformation of the Oriental Churches; and among these, the Christian Church of Abyssinia presents a very conspicuous and essential object A bout the time of the arrival of the Society s, first Missionary in Malta, in the year 1815, a still deeper interest was excited respecting that country; from its being known that a Native had been for some years engaged, at Cairo, in translating the Scriptures into A mharic, the principal vernacular Abyssinian Language. This Amharic Version of the entire Bible was purchased at Cairo, by the Rev. W. Jowetfc on account of the British and Foreign Bible Society, in 1820.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
