THE ADISHI GOSPEL

The Adishi Gospel is the earliest aesthetically embellished manuscript to have survived. It reveals links to antique art as well as to Eastern Christianity. The number of books began to grow in the eighth and ninth centuries, with the Gospels taking the lead among these manuscripts. The Georgian-language church heritage is unique because it is a literary culture that was created in Georgian language. The Gospels are the most abundant monuments among existing manuscripts.
