Anabasis by Xenophon

A Christogenea commentary On the Gospel of John has recently been completed. Many passages simply do not say what the modern churches think they mean! Don't miss this important and ground-breaking work proving that Christian Identity is indeed fully supported by Scripture.

A Commentary on Genesis is now being presented. Here we endeavor to explain the very first book of the Christian Bible from a perspective which reconciles both the Old and New Testaments with archaeology and ancient history, through eyes which have been opened by the Gospel of Christ.

A Commentary on the Epistles of Paul has been completed at Christogenea.org. This lengthy and in-depth series reveals the true Paul as an apostle of God, a prophet in his own right, and the first teacher of what we call Christian Identity.

Don't miss our recently-completed series of commentaries on the Minor Prophets of the Bible, which has also been used as a vehicle to prove the historicity of the Bible as well as the Provenance of God.

ANABASIS

 

By Xenophon

 

Translation by H. G. Dakyns



                  Dedicated To
                  Rev. B. Jowett, M.A.
                  Master of Balliol College
                  Regius Professor of Greek in the University of Oxford
        
                  Xenophon the Athenian was born 431 B.C. He was a
                  pupil of Socrates. He marched with the Spartans,
                  and was exiled from Athens. Sparta gave him land
                  and property in Scillus, where he lived for many
                  years before having to move once more, to settle
                  in Corinth. He died in 354 B.C.

                  The Anabasis is his story of the march to Persia
                  to aid Cyrus, who enlisted Greek help to try and
                  take the throne from Artaxerxes, and the ensuing
                  return of the Greeks, in which Xenophon played a
                  leading role. This occurred between 401 B.C. and
                  March 399 B.C.
