An excerpt of which is:

          [Koresh's writing]                    [commentary notes]

People  don't  understand what  the name |  24. The Meaning of Koresh.
Koresh means. No one knows. Scholars can |       "Cyrus" is the Persian name
not tell  you.  Look at all  the concor- |       for the sun, and in Hebrew
dances,  and they  don't know.  But it's |       is "Koresh,"  which is the
found in Isaiah 45. It was  originally a |       same as the Egyptian "Phrah"
name given to a Persian king,  who over- |       Isa. 45:1+
threw  ancient  Babylon.  But there's  a |       Rev. 10:1,7
mystery  to  the  name  Koresh.  He  was |
"clothed with a vesture dipped in blood,"|       Rev. 19:13
because  people don't like to  learn the |       Gen. 37:31
truth  that's not out of their own head. |
"And his name is called The Word of God."|       John 1:1  1 John 5:7
