[3]: (ዕብ ኤላሁት። ዐረ ላሁት። ጽር ቲዎቲስ። ሮማይ ዲዊኒታስ) Godhead, divinity; being God, being divine; or the nature of God, His character, His state, that which unites and reconciles the Holy Trinity, that which makes them one God. Since creating, ruling, and bringing into existence are of their nature, their nature is called Godhead by the name of their action; being and existence are one aspect; their interpretation should be understood as nature. “ምስጢራተ መለኮትከ።” The mysteries of Your Godhead. “ኢይደሉኬ ናስተማስል መለኮቶ።” It is not proper for us to compare His Godhead. “ይሤለሱ በአካላት ወይትዋሐዱ በመለኮት።” They are three in Persons and united in Godhead. “መለኮትኒ ይትዐወቅ ከመ ውእቱ ያኀብር ቅድስተ ሥላሴ” And the Godhead is known as that which unites the Holy Trinity (ጥበ፲፪: ፭። ግብ፲፯: ፳፱። ሃይ: አበ). Again; since nature is the foundation of the name of Person and action, the origin and source of all things, of unity and trinity, from this one nature, they took one name, and so that the three may be called existence and existence, they are called Godhead, Godhead; it means God; its mystery is understood from the second meaning. In them I believe and confess that they are Godhead and existence, and I truly say that they are Godhead; and each one of the Persons of the Holy Trinity possesses perfect Godhead with His own Person and name; and this is His Godhead (ሃይ: አበ: ባስ: ጾክ). Thirdly; since the Persons derive the name of Godhead from their nature, all scholars in their writings call the Person Godhead. “ወአልቦ ኀውሥ ውስተ መለኮቱ፤ አላ ሥላሴ ፍጽምት።” And there is no mixture in His Godhead; but a perfect Trinity. “እስመ ሠለስቱ ኍልቈ መለኮቱ።” For the three are the number of His Godhead. "ትሥልስተ መለኮት” Trinity of the Godhead (ተረ: ቄር: ኤጲ፲፯። ሳዊ፲፱። መጽ: ምስ) . «Evidence; when the Son became human in His distinct Person, His nature also became human, to say one nature, one Son, one Christ, instead of saying three Persons, resembling the Holy Trinity as three rich men without the unity of will and nature, they say three Godheads, three distinct gods, regarding the new errors; doctrine and interpretation.

መለየ/ mäläyä: (ሌለየ፤ መሰወ) He devised a plan, he plotted; he knew by scheming; he became cunning. (ተረት/ proverbs ) “ካጕል ጥንቈላ የሰው ልጅ መላ።” Human scheming [is better]: than powerful witchcraft. He destroyed, he broke up, he separated, he scattered. He melted, he liquefied, he poured out; its mystery is understood from destroying. Since its verbal form is combined from መሰወ (mäsäwä) and ሌለየ (leläyä), it shows both ways.

መሲሕ ሖት/ mäsīḥ ḥot: (መስሐ ይመስሕ ይምሳሕ። ዕብ ማሻሕ። ሱር ምሻሕ። ዐረ መሰሐ፤ ቀባ) To anoint; to add oil; to rub and season with oil. “ዘቀብዖ ባለው ዘመስሖ እንዲል” Instead of ዘቀብዖ (zäqäbo whom he anointed), it should say ዘመስሖ (zämäsḥo whom he anointed) (ግብ፲: ፴፰).

And this is the false Messiah (ኢሳ፵፭: ፩። መዝ፻፬። ፩ዮሐ: ፪: ፳፪).

መሲሕና/ mäsīḥnä: Messiahship; being the Messiah.

መሲል ሎት/ mäsīl lot: (መሰለ ይመስል ይምስል። ዕብ ማሻል። ሱር ምታል። ዐረ መሰ(ተ) ለ) To resemble; to appear like, to be called another without changing nature; in truth or in falsehood, that is, in appearance, deed, and word only. “ይመስሎ ዝንቱ ወልድ ለጦቢት።” This son resembles Tobit. “አርዌ ዘይመስል ድበ።” A beast that resembles a bear. And the son of Joseph resembled them. “ነገርየ ይመስል ሐሰተ።” My word seems false.

Instead of በመሰለ (bämäsälä he resembled), it says ተመሰለ (tämäśälä he was likened) and ተማሰለ (tämäsälä he was likened) it is a mistake. “ተመስለ ከመ ብእሲ።” He was likened to a man. “ተመሰሉ ኪያየ በከመ አነ እትሜሰሎ።” Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ. “መነ ትሜሰል” To whom will you liken me.

(ምሳ፳፯: ፲፱። ጥበ፲፭: ፱። ቀሌ). Its headings are of the house that ቀተለ/ killed and ቀደሰ / sanctified; therefore, it is interpreted with looseness, strictness, and allegory.

መሲና/ mäsīnā: (ናት) a barren animal, a sterile one with a closed womb.

መሲክ ኮት/ mäsīk ኮት: (መሰከ ይመስክ ይምስክ። ዕብ ማሻኽ። ዐረ መሰከ) To seize, to grasp; to pull, to drag; to stretch, to extend; to draw a bow, an arrow. “ምስክ አባ ቀስተከ ወፈኑ ሐጸከ።” Grasp your bow and send your arrow.

Instead of saying ኢከላእኩ ኢያጽለምኩ (īkälāku īyaṣlämku I did not withhold, I did not darken), it says ኢመሰውኩ ዐይነ ዕቤር (īmäsäwku äynä ïbēr I did not melt the eye of the pregnant woman) it is a mistake of the translator; but the old scholars interpret it as I did not cause to weep (ኢዮ፴፩: ፲፮).

: He fled, he ran; he was saved, he went out, he escaped; lest he be caught, or lest he snatch, like a mule. መንጠቅ (mäntäq) shows two meanings: to take oneself and ones wealth from anothers hand; but the book says አምሠጠ (amsätä) instead of በመሠጠ (bämäsätä) its verb form is active and strong, so it does not fit. “አምሠጡ ውስተ ጽዮን።” Flee to Zion. “ወይጠል ዘያመሥጥ።” And the rock that saves. “አምሠጠ በፈረስ ረዋጺ።” He escaped on a swift horse. “እመ ቦ ዘአምሠጠክሙ።” If there is anyone who has escaped you. “ከመ ትክሀሉ አምሥጦ” That you may be able to escape (ኢሳ፲፫: ፲፬። ፫ነገ: ፳: ፳። ፬ነገ: ፲: ፳፬። ሉቃ፳፩: ፴፮).

Instead of በመሳሊ (bämäsālī resembling) and በመምሰሊ (bämämśälī resembling), it says ተመሳሊ (tämäsālī likened) it does not fit. “አፍቅሮተ ሰብእ ተመሳሊት ለአፍቅሮተ እግዚ።” The love of man is likened to the love of God. “ተመሳልያን ቦሙ ውስተ ምግባራቲሆሙ።” They are alike in their deeds. “ይኩኑ ተመሳልያነ በምግባራቲሁ።” Let them be imitators in his deeds. “ተመሳሌ ንኡስ ቀርን።” Likeness of a small horn. “ተመሳሌ አባ ይስሪን” Likeness of Father Israel (ፊልክ: ፻፲፬። ፻፹፬። ፍ: ነ: ፭: ፲፭። ጥበ: ጠቢ። ደራሲ).

Saying መሣንቅ (mäśanïk provisions) meaning ዝኰ (zïkʷo this much), ብሉየ (bïluyä old) it is a scribes error. “ዘእንበለ ይቁም አድባር” Without the mountains standing (መዝ: ፹፱).

መክ/ mäk: The name of a book; the second part of ፍትሐ ነገሥት/ Fetha Negest. The መ / Mä comes from መለከ/ Mäläkä (he/ she reigned) the ክ/ K comes from ካልእ/ Kale (other) or ክልኤት/ Klïet (two), and it has become one name. Furthermore, in the Hebrew alphabet, ቤት/ Bet and ካፍ/ Kaf resemble 6 and 7, so those who interpret say that it is a mistake to say መክ/ Mäk instead of መብ/ Mäb to mean again and other. መክ/ Mäk, which is Kings II (ፍትሐ ነገሥት መቅድም). መግ/ Mäg and መጅ/ Mäj (ገጽ: ደ). Because the Arabs changed the pronunciation of Gamel to Jim, they were transferred and misplaced for this reason; see their interpretations in their respective places.

It uses "መክብብ” (Mäkbib) instead of saying "ዘመን መዋዕል” (Zämän Mäwail chronicles, annals) it is a mistake. "ወኮነ መክብበ ንግሡ ለዳዊት አርብዓ ዓመተ” And the total of Davids reign was forty years” (፩ዜና መዋዕል ፳፱: ፳፯).

One who has a knife; one who has a sword; or whose religion is called knife. “እሉሰ መጥባሕታውያን ይትናገሩ ፈጠራ: ” (ምእላድ)። And these Mätbäḥtawiyan speak fabrications (Creation). The way of the knife has five methods. The first is: if the Holy Spirit divided and created the flesh that took the Word without seed, it is said to be called ointment (ቅብዕ). The second is: because it cleansed him from Adams punishment, it is called ointment, and it quotes scripture (Romans 14: 15). The third is: because the high priest of the Old Testament used to mix the four perfumes with a fifth oil; and the Holy Spirit is the mixer, it is said to be called ointment. The fourth is: it says that he was anointed in his body to be an example for us; but his anointing did not benefit him. All these four say that the Holy Spirit is ointment; but their teaching should call it maker, cleanser, joiner, unbeneficial rather than calling it ointment. The fifth is: the Son is ointment; God in his body; because he honored his flesh through the union (ተዋሕዶ), he is called ointment; and ተቀብዐ (he was anointed) means ተዋሐደ (he was united), not primarily that he was honored and appointed by the Holy Spirit. This fifth one first arose in the time of Susenyos; and later it was drawn out by Tewodros; and the people who instigated it are called Commander of the Virgin, Christ; and this is the reason it was drawn out: (History). After the Gondar kingdom lost all its territory except the crown in the year 1777, and Ras Wolde Selassie ruled Tigray alone in his time; from Tembien, Debre Damo, Kaba Gerima, from these three regions, three false teachers arose named Abba Kinu, Debtera Betru, Aleka Amde Mensut, who created and inscribed twelve heresies, and in Ethiopia, many heretics saying such things have arisen and troubled us; and the thing that silences their mouths is saying the Son is ointment; without this they cannot overcome, so strengthen this faith for us; a delegation from the fortyfour churches from Gondar sent to Egypt. (ተረት/ proverbs ) “የገባያ ግርግርታ ለቀጣፊ ተመቸው።” The noise of the market suited the deceiver. And the Egyptians, because the teaching and language of their fathers had completely disappeared in the time of the Tanbalat, accepted it thinking it was the truth. «በአንተ ብዝኀ ተደምሮቶሙ ምስለ ተንባላት እስመ ጠፍአ ልሳኖሙ ቅብጥ ዘእምኔሁ የአምሩ ጽድቀ ሃይማኖቶሙ፤ ወኮኑ ዘኢይሰምዑ ዝክረ ሥሉስ ቅዱስ ማእከሌሆሙ ዘእንበለ ኅዳጣን፤ ወኢለወልደ እግዚ ተዘከርዎ” Because of your great mixing with the Tanbalat, for their Coptic language, from which they know the truth of their faith, has disappeared; and they have become those who do not hear the remembrance of the Holy Trinity among them except for a few; and they do not remember the Son of God (ሳዊ ፡ ዘእስ ፡ ድ፲). Just as the saying goes, he married where he got his clothes; the bishops who came after that, Abba Iyosab; and especially Cyril, whose original name was Minas Andrawos, firmly held onto the Son is ointment, persecuting, imprisoning, flogging, and executing; because of this, it was called the religion of the Egyptians, and by proclamation and command, it took the name of Mark and has reigned until today; see the interpretation of Christ to understand the badness of its interpretation in destroying the meaning of Only Begotten Son. Earthly: a blacksmith; just as hypocrites and deceivers say that the cross he made came down from heaven, this is also like that: (Tale; about a proud woman) Mrs. Nameme, get dressed for those who dont know you. Even before that harlot Gudit, who in the year 900 was the mother of bandits and the sister of Falashas, two false teachers from the Eutychian party came, named Minas Andrawos, claiming to be bishops without being so; they deceived Ethiopia with falsehood and error; saying God in his body, one nature, one action, and celebrating Christmas on the 28th began in their time. And in the end, their falsehood was known, and they were punished by the sword, and immediately that wretched kingdom of Gudit began; for this reason, our mother Ethiopia, who loves the foreign stepchild more than her own children, lived for about 70 years without a bishop or archbishop (Synaxarium: Megabit 3). The Trinity that reconciles the former and the latter; Zeshiye Wolde Selassie; a monk of Debre Libanos; who traveled all the regions of Egypt, Greece, and Syria. “ሂሮድስ ወጲላጦስ ተንሥኡ ቅድመ እንበለ ፍትሕ ላዕለ አቡሁ ቀባዒ ወላዕለ ወልዱ ቅቡዕ።” Herod and Pilate rose up unjustly against his Father, the Anointer, and against his Son, the Anointed. “ከማሆሙ ዓዲ ተንሥኡ በግፍዕ፤ ዘእምግብጽ ሚናስ ሐሳዊ ወእንድራዎስ ጽሉእ።” Likewise, Minas the false one from Egypt and Andrawos the cursed one rose up unjustly. “ወበከመ ተኵላት እምአባግዕ፤ ይትኀንጥኡ እሉ እምይትኀጣእ ሰብእ፤ እስመ ኮኑ አርኣያ ለጸብእ።” And like wolves from sheep; these snatch from the humble people; for they became examples of strife.
