Was Cyrus the Great a believer?

History Channel:

Cyrus the Great, founder of the Achaemenid Persian Empire, was a devout Zoroastrian. By most accounts, Cyrus was a tolerant ruler who allowed his non-Iranian subjects to practice their own religions. He ruled by the Zoroastrian law of asha (truth and righteousness) but didn’t impose Zoroastrianism on the people of Persia’s conquered territories.

He was a polytheist.

Isaiah 45:

1 This is what the LORD says to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I take hold of to subdue nations before him and to strip kings of their armor, to open doors before him so that gates will not be shut

Cyrus was the only non-Jewish figure in the Bible to be called a messiah/anointed.

Was Cyrus the Great a believer?

He was anointed by God and believed in YHWH but he also believed in the god of Zoroastrianism.
