....... was the instrument used by God to destroy Babylon and in setting the children of Israel free from the Babylonian exile
Answer Details
The instrument used by God to destroy Babylon and set the children of Israel free from the Babylonian exile was Cyrus the Persian. Cyrus was a powerful king who conquered Babylon in 539 BCE and issued the Edict of Cyrus, which allowed the Jews to return to Jerusalem and rebuild their temple. This event is described in the Old Testament book of Ezra, and is seen as a significant event in Jewish history. So, in summary, Cyrus the Persian was the instrument used by God to deliver the Jews from the Babylonian exile.
