This is a comparative essay of Osiris and Jesus. In this essay I will compare the two stories on 8 points that I found somewhat overlapping with each other. It should be emphasized that the Egyptian myth arose more than 2000 years before Jesus was said to have been born. The first topic is the birth of the two gods and the signs given regarding their arrival. When Osiris was born to Geb, the Egyptian god of the earth, and Nut, the goddess of the sky, a voice came to Pamyles to spread the good word and Pamyles assisted him throughout his life. When Jesus was born in Jerusalem he was born to the Virgin Mary and his father Joseph. On the night he was born, a voice came down from heaven and a shepherd who was tending his flock heard it and went to see the child, also three wise men came from the east bringing gifts. Both Jesus and Osiris were divine children but should have led an ordinary man's life. Jesus came as a result of a virginal pregnancy of his mother Mary and is the only son of God and his father Joseph was a poor carpenter. Osiris was born of 2 Gods and is the great-grandson of the most powerful God of Egypt, Ra, but was cared for all his life by Pamyles and was raised to be a king of Egypt. Osiris taught the Egyptian people who were barbaric at the time how to feed themselves by growing crops and how to worship the Gods and gave them laws to live by. Osiris was a great king and after teaching the Egyptian people how to be civilized, he left and went on a journey to teach other people the same laws on how to be a civilized culture. Through his preaching, Jesus gained 12 disciples to whom he taught the key to eternal life. Jesus during his 33 years on earth traveled to several countries in what is now the Middle East and...... middle of paper...... her husband and he can finally go to the afterlife. Where he will remain until the final battle with Seth takes place. In the final crossroads in the stories in my opinion it is in both stories after the last battle has been waged and won by the right side of the followers of Osiris and the followers of Jesus and those who remained true to their faith will inherit the kingdom of life eternal and will live with their king forever. In conclusion since the story of Osiris dates back more than 2000 years before the story of Jesus and they were both descendants of the most powerful god in each religion I believe that the Christian story is a kind of mix between what people had heard over time from other stories like Osiris and what the gospel writers of the Bible needed to complete their accounts of Jesus and his time on earth and how it applies to them.
