Best Answer

Cyrus was king of Persia (560/559 - 530BCE). Darius was king of Persia (522 - 486BCE).

Cyrus was credited (correctly) in the Book of Isaiah with conquering the Babylonian Empire and freeing the Jews. Darius was credited in the Book of Daniel with conquering the Babylonian Empire and freeing the Jews.
