One executes ECMAScript-conforming code.  The other evaluates *data* that 
needs to be parsed according to JSON, which is a *subset* of ES syntax, 
instead.

Until there were implementations of ES 5 there was no built-in JSON 
parser/serializer, and for some other programming languages there still is 
not.  So people (starting with Douglas Crockford, who devised JSON) wrote 
and are writing libraries to support it.
