Answer:

The Syrians eventually outlawed Judaism, while the Persians encouraged free worship.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reign of the Syrians was characterized by hostility towards Judaism and state policies that eventually outlawed Jewish worship.

How ever, Cyrus of Persia granted freedom of worship to Jews and even allowed them to go home and reconstruct the temple of God in Jerusalem. Generally, the Persians exhibited more religious tolerance than the Syrians towards the Jewish religion.
