ABSTRACT
This study deals with the Cyrus Oracle and the Cyrus Cylinder with the help of the literary comparative method. The Cyrus Oracle was the cornerstone for liberty, emancipation, the return of the ancient Israel from Babylon captivity and for rebuilding the temple. King Cyrus is the Yahweh’s anointed servant fulfilling his will for the Israelites.
The Cyrus Cylinder is a text written in the stone of the Temple foundation, kind of royal propaganda, in the pattern of misharum edicts in the land of Mesopotamia. It enhances religious freedom and abolishment of the system of slavery, by allowing the subjugated subjects to return to their lands and to worship their own gods.
Both the Cyrus Oracle and the Cyrus Cylinder are similar in their background for human liberty and emancipation, and are also the invaluable sources for suffering humanity.
