A:Probably yes, although scholars simply point out the parallels and let the reader make his or her own judgement on this. We find that many Jewish beliefs and practices that arose during the Persian period are very similar to beliefs and practices in Zoroastrianism.

Zoroastrianism was the religion of the Persians, whom the Jews first met when the Persians defeated the Babylonian empire and permitted the Jews to return to their homeland. The Book of Isaiah demonstrates how grateful the Jews were, giving rise to the possibility that any similarities in the two religions, acquired by the Jews at around this time, could have reflected this gratitude.
