Zoroastrianism as main source of Juda Jesus worship is 'clear'.
Probably via influences coming from Zoroastrian circles in Egypt
Jesus as infant MIGHT have spent some years in Zoroastrian circles in Egypt
How, Western Christian, scholars fight about Zoroastrianism being dualist or not, is not really interesting.
It is obviously not easy to 'see' Zoroastrianism without use of 'catholic' specs.
In Zorastrianism under whatever name 'good' and 'evil' are seen as a unity.
'Good' is not definitive, but what is temporarily locally accepted/not-dangerous..
Totally unlike the absolute 'natural laws' in Catholicism
Zarathushtra never elaborated on the creator of evil, he does emphasize though the existence of twin tendencies accepted/unaccepted
There are many differences in local shapes of Zoroastrianism. From fundamental to relative.
