Ezra 1:8

Even those did Cyrus king of Persia bring forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them unto Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah.

By the hand of Mithredath, х Mitrªdaat (H4990), Mithra, the genius of the sun; Septuagint, Mithradatou, Mithridates - i:e., given to or by Mithra]. Rawlinson ('Ancient Monarchies,' 4:, 330, 334) distinguishes two forms of Iranic or Persian faith: one, a pure and spiritual one, held by the old Persians, and long after by the more intelligent classes; and the other a coarse or more material one. Hence, though none of the early kings mention the name of Mithra, his emblem appears on all the known royal tombs except that of Cyrus. In sculptures, where the emblems of Ormazd and Mithra occur together, the position of the former (the Supreme God) is central, that of the latter toward the right hand of the tablet. The solar emblem (a disk or orb) is upon almost all sculptured tombs, but is otherwise of rare occurrence.

And numbered them unto Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah, х Sheeshªbatsar (H8339)] - a name bestowed in Persia on Zerubbabel (cf. Ezra 7:1 with 2:2; 5:14), signifying, according to Gesenius, from a Persian root, fire-worshipper; but the etymology is uncertain. [Septuagint, Sasabasar. hanaasiy', the phylarch or head of the tribe of Judah (Numbers 7:2; Numbers 7:10; Numbers 34:18).]
