Bas Magdamar

The Bas Magdamar (Packilvanian: luBasmakhdamarah) is the religious scripture of Paxism. The Bas Magdamar consists of three clusters of writings that were each conceived over different epochs and amalgamated into a single text. The first section is called the Ichtmar and consists of writings inspired by and linked to the disciples and school of Prophet Besmali, the supposed founder of Paxism and consists of Books written between 2000 BCE and 1700 BCE. The section is called the Vagumar and consists of writings by various authors that were assembled by Jerome of Damaclion including by King Suleiman of Yehudah who commissioned the Vagumar and had it approved by the Ecclesiastical Council of Adrien however subsequent texts were added to the Vagumar such that the writings in the Vagumar span from 1200 BCE to 0 CE.

The final section of Bas Magdamar consists of additions made and approved under High King Melkezedek the Great of Packilvania who coined the name luBasmakhdamarah which was Staynicised as the Bas Magdamar for the entire collection of nearly 2000 years of writings. All the texts were translated from their original languages into the imperial court language of the time which today is known simply as Liturgical Packilvanian. Through these additions, further additions and apocryphal writings were banned and the Magisterium of Paxism was promoted to safeguard the teaching of religion. Today it is the sole scripture of mainstream Paxism (aka Melkezedekism). Apocryphal writings include the Haagemar and Mahimavan Agranirupana which are used by the tiny Obedite and Ipstite sects respectively. Another extremely small sect, the Yehudite sect only recognises the Vagumar and Ichtmar.
