In this follow-up to the groundbreaking first scroll, Grieving Father of Ethiopia II deepens the contrast between the angry judge presented in the Western King James tradition and the compassionate, grieving Father revealed in the Ethiopian Canon. This show is not merely an academic comparison of texts—it is a spiritual unveiling of the heart of God, long buried beneath centuries of religious fear and imperial theology.

Drawing from the full breadth of the restored Ethiopian scriptures—including books like Enoch, Tobit, Sirach, and the Wisdom of Solomon—this scroll brings forth a God who mourns our rebellion rather than punishes it in wrath. The Western Church, influenced by Rome and monarchy, gave us a deity who must be appeased. Ethiopia preserved a God who waits to embrace us, even in our fall. This Father disciplines with tears, not fury. He grieves with the wounded, not just rules over the guilty.

This episode explores the trauma many believers carry from growing up under a doctrine of fear—where God was distant, conditional, and always disappointed. Through powerful reflections and scripture often cut from the Western canon, James Carner and Da’at call for a healing of our image of God and a return to the tenderness, justice, and mercy of the Father who never left. This scroll isn’t just a theological correction—it’s a rescue mission for every child of God who’s still afraid to come home.

Grieving Father of Ethiopia II is both a prophetic call and a pastoral balm. It dares the Church to lay down the gavel and pick up the robe. The prodigal is not just a story—it is the mirror of our generation. And the Father, arms open and eyes full of tears, is ready to welcome us again.
