Introduction and analysis of new back-stories for the story of the Jewish King in Masnavi.

 Badiozzaman Forouzanfar cites sources for the story of the Jewish king who killed the Christians, from the first volume of Masnavi, but according to the perspective of intertextuality, new back-stories such as the story of Bolus in the Qisas Al-Anbia, the chough and the owl in Kelile and Demne, Rostam and Sheghad in the Shahnameh and the reconquest of Babylon by Darius in the history of Herodotus, could be cited for this story. The outline of these stories is that someone harms himself to infiltrate the enemy corps and claims to be outcast to destroy them. Also, due to the perspective of intertextuality, similar structure of plots and using the Grimas pattern for the actors, a structural comparison and analysis of these stories can be obtained. By this method, it turns out that this story of the Masnavi, has a repeatative plot and its back-story, was of Herodotus' history which has gradually evolved in various literary and historical texts.
