The Maṣḥafa ṭomār narrates how a letter urging the people to respect the Sunday rest appeared outside a Church of Rome in which the patriarch Athanasius celebrated mass.

There exists a short version (most frequent) and a long version, the latter begins with መጽሐፈ፡ ጦማር፡ ዘወረደትት፡ እምሰማይ፡ ላዕለ፡ እደ፡ አትናቴዎስ

It also circulates independently. The Ethiopic version of the Maṣḥafa ṭomār was translated from the Arabic version based on a Syriac version. Guidi suggests that the Maṣḥafa ṭomār may have been translated in the mid-16th century. 72-73 295-297
