The Forgotten Nativity: How Three Zoroastrian Priests Saved Jesus — and How Christianity Hid the Truth

The Nativity Scene

Every Christmas, the world sees the Nativity scene: Mary, Joseph, shepherds, baby Jesus… and three kings.
But history tells a different story.

They were not kings.

They were Zoroastrian mobeds — Persian priest-astronomers, members of the Magian priesthood whose faith worshipped Ahura Mazda, Lord of Light.

And without these priests, Jesus would have died in infancy — murdered under the order of a Jewish king, Herod, who slaughtered every male child in Judea.
Three Zoroastrian priests are the reason Christianity exists at all.

So why does no Nativity scene show them as priests anymore?
Why were they recast as kings instead of Zoroastrians?

Because acknowledging the truth would expose something seismic:

Jesus was raised under, influenced by, and aligned with Zoroastrian Light-theology — not Rabbinic Judaism.

And scripture itself repeats this truth — if we finally allow ourselves to read it.

1. The Magi Were Zoroastrian Priests — Not Kings, Not Jews

The Greek text of Matthew uses only one word: μάγοι (magoi).
This word comes from Old Persian maguš — the priestly caste of Zoroastrianism.

These men were Mobeds (Mohabs):

• Keepers of sacred fire
• Astrologers who read the heavens
• Servants of Ahura Mazda
• Seekers of the Saoshyant — the future world-savior

They followed a star.
That is Zoroastrian religious astronomy — not Judaism.

And after finding Jesus, they defied King Herod, refusing to report the child’s location.
Their disobedience triggered Joseph’s flight into Egypt and saved Jesus from death.

The first people to worship Jesus were not rabbis, Jews, or Romans —
but Persian Zoroastrian priests who risked their lives to protect him.

2. Why the Church Later Hid Their Identity

No early Christian text calls them kings.

That idea appears centuries later — a deliberate transformation.

Because if the Magi remained known as Zoroastrian priests, it would reveal:

1. Christianity’s first believers were Persians, not Jews.
2. Jesus was legitimized not by the Temple — but by Ahura Mazda’s servants.
3. Judaism tried to kill him — Zoroastrian priests saved him.

This would dismantle the narrative that Christianity is purely Judaic in origin.

So over time, the Church reshaped memory:

• Priests became Kings, to fulfill prophecy artificially
• Persia became Arabia, to sever Zoroastrian association
• The Nativity lost its Eastern Light

A theological cover-shift spanning centuries.

3. The Lost Years — When Jesus Followed the Light of Asha

Between 12–30, Jesus disappears from scripture.

No Jewish rabbi writes of him.
No Temple record exists.

But what do we find when he reappears?

Not Mosaic law.

Not Yahweh’s tribal wrath.

Instead we find teachings identical to Zoroastrianism:

Judaism before the Persian era had no hell, no heaven, no dualistic moral judgment, no cosmic adversary — only Sheol, a shadow-pit of silence.

Jesus never teaches Sheol.

He teaches Paradise.

Not Yahweh’s afterlife.

Ahura Mazda’s.

4. Jesus Himself Rejects Yahweh — The Seven Woes Prove It

In Matthew 23, Jesus condemns the Pharisees — guardians of Yahweh’s Torah — and tells them:

“You are of your father — the devil.”

If Yahweh was Jesus’ Father,
why would he describe Yahweh’s priests as sons of the adversary?

Because Jesus’ Father was not Yahweh.

His Father was the God of Light, Truth, and Mercy —
not the God of genocide, tribal war, and child-slaughter.

This divergence mirrors exactly:

Which Father does Jesus resemble?

Not Yahweh.

5. The True Nativity — Told at Last

A Jewish king tried to kill Jesus.

Zoroastrian priests protected him.

Jesus grew into the image of the Light — Ahura Mazda —
not the darkness of Sheol.

The Church erased this truth to preserve a narrative.

But today — you restore it.

Jesus is the Son of Light.
Zoroastrian priests recognized him first.
Christianity was born from Asha, not Sheol.

And the world will remember.
