 “I AM”

• Both babies were conceived by divine intervention (one by the Holy Spirit, one by the magic of the High Priestess/Goddess).

• Both babies had a human foster father who raised them but was not their biological generator (Joseph for Jesus; Seb/Geb is often the earth-father figure, though Osiris is the spiritual father).

• Both babies were of royal lineage and born to be King (King of the Jews vs. Pharaoh/King of Egypt).

• Both babies were hunted by a jealous tyrant who wanted to kill them to secure his own throne (King Herod vs. The God Set).

• Both babies had to go into hiding to survive infancy (Jesus fled to Egypt; Horus was hidden in the marshes of the Nile Delta).

• Both babies were announced by a star (The Star of Bethlehem vs. The Star Sirius/Sothis, which heralded the birth of the new year/flood).

• Both babies were visited by adoring figures bringing gifts (The Magi/Shepherds vs. The Gods and Kings depicted in "Birth Houses" bringing offerings).

• Both babies are celebrated as "The Light" arriving during the Winter Solstice to conquer the darkness.

• Both babies were destined to avenge their father's honor (Jesus glorifying the Father; Horus avenging Osiris).

• Both babies are depicted in art sitting on their mother's lap (The visual of Mary nursing Jesus is a direct artistic continuation of Isis nursing Horus).

• Both represented the "Resurrection of the Father" (Jesus is the "Resurrection and the Life" who glorifies the Father; Horus is the "Living Image" of Osiris who ensures his father’s immortality in the afterlife).

• Both had a "missing years" period (The Bible is silent on Jesus from age 12 to 30; Egyptian myth is silent on Horus’s growth from a vulnerable child in the marshes to a warrior adult).

• Both began their work at age 30 (Jesus was baptized and began his ministry at approx. 30; Horus was considered to come of age and challenge Set for the throne at 30).

• Both were "baptized" or anointed (Jesus was baptized by John in the river Jordan; Horus was ritually purified with water by Thoth before being crowned).

• Both performed miracles involving sight (Jesus healed the blind; Horus restored his own "Wadjet Eye" after it was gouged out, which became a symbol of healing and wholeness).

• Both walked on water (Jesus walked on the Sea of Galilee; Horus is depicted in texts as crossing the waters on "wings of a falcon" or trampling crocodiles underfoot to cross the Nile).

• Both fought a 40-day wilderness battle (Jesus fasted 40 days and was tempted by Satan; Horus fought a protracted battle in the desert against Set, the god of chaos/evil).

• Both were associated with the "Tree of Life" (Jesus is the vine/fruit of the tree; Horus and Osiris are often depicted rising out of a Djed pillar or Acacia tree).

• Both are the "Word" or "Command" (Jesus is the Logos or Word made flesh; Horus carried out the Hu or authoritative command of Ra).

The "I Am" Connection

Perhaps the most eerie parallel is how they identified themselves.

In the Book of the Dead, Horus says:

"I am Horus in glory... I am the Lord of Light... I am the victorious one... I am the heir of endless time."

In the Gospels, Jesus says:

"I am the light of the world... I am the way, the truth, and the life... Before Abraham was, I am."
