Why it matters
An eleven-chapter composite apocalypse transmitted fully in Ethiopic, with additional Greek, Latin, Coptic, and Slavonic witnesses. Chapters 1–5 preserve the martyrdom framework and a Hezekiah apocalypse; chapters 6–11 present Isaiah's visionary ascent and the descent, manifestation, victory, and ascent of the Beloved.
