Cyrus In The Bible

Since we have discussed both Cyrus and the Bible, we ought to discuss Cyrus in the Bible. He is in:

2 Chronicles 36: 22-23
Ezra 6: 3-5
Isaiah 45: 1
Isaiah 45:13

That adds considerably to our The Bible On The Blog list although it becomes necessary to differentiate between direct Biblical quotations in Poul Anderson's works and Biblical passages that are relevant in other ways, as in this case.

Kaor, Paul!

Meaning we can find many allusions and references to the Bible in the works of Anderson, as well as direct quotations. A COMPLETE COLLECTED WORKS OF POUL ANDERSON which was also ANNOTATED would need many much marginal notes, glosses, and footnotes!

Ad astra! Sean
