Answer to Assumptions I. With regard to the first of these assumptions, there can be no doubt that the writer of Daniel might justly have said that Babylon was taken by the Medes, inasmuch as Gobryas, governor of Gutium (which, as will be shown below, was in part, at least, coextensive with Media), was the general who while commanding an army under Cyrus took Babylon for him. But as a matter of fact Daniel says nothing of the kind. He says simply that after the death of Belshazzar the Chaldean
...king, Darius the Mede, received his kingdom;^ and again that Darius was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans. ^ But on the other « Chapter v, 31, » IX, i.
152 The Book of Daniel hand Daniel does not say that the Persians under Cyrus took Babylon without the assistance of the Medes. The truth is, it was the Medes and Persians who conquered Babylon. If it be granted, as Professor Sayce, followed by Winckler, has contended that Astyages was not a Mede but a Scythian; then, Cyrus the Persian, and Harpagus the Mede, rebelled against the domination of the alien Scythian, and Cyrus became king of the united peoples, the Medes and Persians, from that time on one and inseparable.
