Ἰακὼβ δὲ ἀποκλείσας τὰς πύλας τῆς βάρεως
παρεκάλει τὸν Ἡσαῦ μνησθῆναι τῶν γονικῶν ἐντολῶν
Jacob shut the gates of the Baris
He had invited Esau to remember the ancestral laws?
I am unsure what the latter part means, γονικός means 'of the seed, ancestral' and can't find this word in other books?
Psa 103:18 μεμνημένοις τῶν ἐντολῶν αὐτοῦ?
Xenophon, Anabasis 7.6.24
Aristarchus the Lacedaemonian forbid your entering and shut the gates against you?
Ἀρίσταρχος δʼ ὑμᾶς ὁ Λακεδαιμόνιος οὐκ εἴα εἰσιέναι ἀποκλείσας τὰς πύλας
Xenophon, Anabasis 7.5.11

1ἐντεῦθεν ὁ Σεύθης ἐλοιδόρει τὸν Ἡρακλείδην ὅτι οὐ παρεκάλει καὶ Ξενοφῶντα. ἐκ δὲ τούτου παρακαλοῦσιν αὐτὸν μόνον
