The messenger of Corinth brings news to Oedipus that the man he believes to be his father, Polybius, has died. He also tells Oedipus that he was given to Corinthian monarchs as a baby and was not their birth child.
That King Polybus has died
The messenger from Corinth arrives to Thebes to tell Oedipus that Oedipus' father Polybus is dead. And the people of Corinth wish Oedipus to be their new king. The messenger reveals to Oedipus that Polybus and Merope are not his real parents. He also reveals that the Shepherd gave him a baby as a gift to the King and Queen of Corinth.
Ross is a messenger. Every time there is a message to be delivered, Ross is delivering it. He should be portrayed as a courier. We first meet him when he is bringing news to Duncan of the battle in Fife and Cawdor's treachery, then he brings news to Macbeth that he is now Thane of Cawdor, then he brings messages to Lady Macduff, and finally brings news to Macduff that his family has been slaughtered.
That Polybus is dead is the news that the Messenger brings from Oedipus' homeland and that the death is from natural causes is the reason why Jocasta is relived in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus fears his fate as his father's killer. But the Corinthian messenger lets Oedipus' wife Queen Jocasta know that Oedipus' presumed father, King Polybus, is dead from illness and old age. Jocasta welcomes the news since Oedipus is far away in Thebes and therefore cannot be said to bring about his father's death in Corinth.

Technically, it could be either. "Evangel" means "good news" or "a messenger bringing good news" (eu-, good; angel, - messenger). It's the same as "gospel" (go-, good; spell, report). While we normally find it used to refer to the Good News of Christian salvation, it would be proper (grammatically, at least) to use it for relating a wonderful discovery from any kind of religion.
