Description: The Queen of Sheba and her only Son Menyelek by E.A. Wallis Budge First Published in 2001. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This is a complete English translation of the famous Ethiopian work The Kebra Nagast - The Glory of the Kings of Ethiopia. Complied by a Coptic priest in the 6th century AD from much older material, The Kebra Nagast is a remarkable mixture of legends and traditions, some historical and some of a mythic quality, derived from the Old Testament and the later Rabbinic writings and from Egyptian (both pagan and Christian), Arabian and Ethiopian sources. The principle theme is the descent of the Kings of Ethiopia from the union of Solomon, King of Israel, and the Queen of Sheba. Woven through the story are many important narratives, including prophecies in the Old Testament that concern the Messiah as applied to Jesus Christ, the history of the rebel angels, and legends of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba in the Koran. Author Biography E. A. WALLIS BUDGE, author of many books, was Keeper of Egyptian and Assyrian Antiques in the British Museum. Table of Contents INTRODUCTION; I.
