John Trapp on Ezra 6:1

CHAP. VI. Verſe 1. Then Darius the King.

DArius Hyſtaſpes, who ſucceeded Cambyſes; being choſen by the Princes of the Perſians, as ſaith Herodotus. Plato commendeth him for a reſtorer of the Perſian Monarchy, much defaced under Cambyſes. Howbeit he diſcommendeth him for this,In Thalia lib 3. de Legib. that he bred not his ſonne Xerxes ſo well as he might have done, and further teſtifieth, that to him it might be ſaid; O Darius, how little care haſt thou taken to ſhun Cyrus his ſlackneſſe? for thou haſt bred Xerxes every whit as ill, as he did Cambyſes.
