The second, whose story I am now writing, who had the surname of the Mindful|, was the grandson of the former, by his daughter Parysatis, who brought Darius four sons, th|e eldest Artaxerxes, the next Cyrus, and two younger than these, Ostanes and Oxathres. Cyru|s took his name of the ancient Cyrus, as he, they say, had his from the sun, which, in the Pe|rsian language, is called Cyrus. Artaxerxes was at first called Arsicas; Dinon says Oarses; b|ut it is utterly improbable that Ctesias (however otherwise he may have filled his books wit|h a perfect farrago of incredible and senseless fables) should be ignorant of the name of th|e king with whom he lived as his physician, attending upon himself, his wife, his mother, an|d his children.||Cyrus, from his earliest youth, showed something of a headstrong and vehement character; Arta|xerxes, on the other side, was gentler in everything, and of a nature more yielding and sof|t in its action. He married a beautiful and virtuous wife, at the desire of his parents, bu|t kept her as expressly against their wishes.|...[MUCH MORE]|(http://www.4literature.net/Plutarch/Artaxerxes/) deat: 0424 BC plac: Persia (Iran) Ruled 0464 - 0424 BC marr: marr: Concubine marr: marr: | ||||||

WHEN Eliashib the high priest was dead, his son Judas succeeded in the high priesthood; an|d when he was dead, his son John took that dignity; on whose account it was also that Bagoses|, the general of another Artaxerxes's army, (22) polluted the temple, and imposed tributes o|n the Jews, that out of the public stock, before they offered the daily sacrifices, they shou|ld pay for every lamb fifty shekels. Now Jesus was the brother of John, and was a friend of B|agoses, who had promised to procure him the high priesthood. In confidence of whose support|, Jesus quarreled with John in the temple, and so provoked his brother, that in his anger hi|s brother slew him. Now it was a horrible thing for John, when he was high priest, to perpetr|ate so great a crime, and so much the more horrible, that there never was so cruel and impiou|s a thing done, neither by the Greeks nor Barbarians. However, God did not neglect its punish|ment, but the people were on that very account enslaved, and the temple was polluted by the P|ersians. Now when Bagoses, the general of Artaxerxes's army, knew that John, the high pries|t of the Jews, had slain his own brother Jesus in the temple, he came upon the Jews immediate|ly, and began in anger to say to them," Have you had the impudence to perpetrate a murder i|n your temple?" And as he was aiming to go into the temple, they forbade him so to do; but h|e said to them," Am not I purer than he that was slain in the temple?" And when he had said t|hese words, he went into the temple. Accordingly, Bagoses made use of this pretense, and puni|shed the Jews seven years for the murder of Jesus. deat: DECEASED < Pharnabazus II of Pharnaces I of Arsames|Satrap|Satrap of Daskyleion birt: 0415 BC plac: Phrygia, Anatolia (C.
