Brown-Driver-Briggs' Definition
- Darius = "lord"
- Darius the Mede, the son of Ahasuerus, king of the Chaldeans, who succeeded to the Babylonian kingdom on the death of Belshazzar; probably the same as "Astyages" the last king of the Medes (538 BC)
- Darius, the son of Hystaspes, the founder of the Perso-Arian dynasty (521 BC)
- Darius II or Darius III
- Darius II, Nothus (Ochus) was king of Persia during the time of Nehemiah (424/3-45/4 BC). Darius II is the most probable because he is mentioned by Nehemiah and ruled during the time of Nehemiah
- Darius III, Codomannus was king of Persia during its last years at the time of Alexander the Great and was his opponent (336-330 BC)
