Based on the available evidence, we can be reasonably certain that Zoroaster really did exist. Scholars say that he probably lived before at least 1700 BCE and possibly much earlier. There is no extra-biblical evidence that Moses ever existed, and a careful analysis of the biblical stories indicates that he likely did not exist. Neverthless, if the biblical account is accepted as true, Moses led the Israelites from Egypt around 1440 BCE. Either way, Zoroaster was before Moses.

It is believed that Zoroaster, the founder of Zoroastrianism, lived before Moses, who is a central figure in Judaism. Zoroaster is estimated to have lived around 1500-1200 BCE, while Moses is traditionally placed around 1391-1271 BCE.
