Samuel Gobat (1799-1879) was a Swiss missionary and bishop who played a significant role in the
Protestant missionary work in Abyssinia (modern-day Ethiopia) and Jerusalem. His short story can
be summarized as follows:
• Early Life and Education: Gobat was born in Bern, Switzerland. He studied theology and
became deeply committed to missionary work.
• Missionary Work in Abyssinia (Ethiopia): In the 1830s, Gobat went to Abyssinia as a
missionary with the Church Missionary Society (CMS). His work was challenging, facing
numerous obstacles including language barriers, cultural differences, and political instability. He
translated the Bible into the local language and strived to establish a more lasting presence of the
Protestant faith. However, his attempts to spread Protestantism were met with mixed success due to
the firmly established Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church.
• Jerusalem: Later in his career, Gobat's efforts shifted to Jerusalem, where he served as Anglican
Bishop of Jerusalem. This reflected a broader shift in his focus toward ecumenical work, bridging
the gap between different Christian denominations.
• Legacy: Samuel Gobat's impact was felt more in his efforts to promote education, and work with
local communities, rather than widespread religious conversion. He's remembered for his
dedication, perseverance, and efforts toward interfaith dialogue. He left a significant mark on the
religious and social landscape of both Ethiopia and Jerusalem.
