In the spirit of historian James Burke’s famous TV series “Connections”, here’s a little historical tidbit for you. The same “bad, evil” King Xerxes who wanted to conquer the “good noble” Greeks was also the “good” Persian King Ahasuerus the Bible refers to in the Book of Daniel, who granted the appeal from his Hebrew wife Esther to spare her fellow Hebrews, as celebrated in the Feast of Purim.
I have enjoyed all the info on the Persians and the Greeks.
Many Greeks today live on welfare and don’t work.
