Three days after Jesus died and was buried, He rose from the dead, and set us all free from the chains of sin. What is written above would be unique if the exact same thing hadn't also been recorded in the myth of Horus from Egyptian mythology.
The phrase, "The Living Horus" was used by Egyptian pharaohs who believed themselves to be an incarnation of the God Horus on Earth. In death, the pharaoh is associated with Osiris - god of the Underworld or Afterlife and the father of the God Horus. It is the god Osiris who grants the pharaoh everlasting life and the spirit of the deceased pharaoh is then associated with the constellation of Orion. Osiris and Horus are the same deity in different manifestations: Horus represents the sun at dawn while Osiris is the sun at sunset when it disappears below the horizon. So, Osiris dies and is resurrected: to live again as Horus. It's like when people used to say: "The King is dead! Long live the King!" The death of one pharaoh is swiftly followed by the ascension to the throne of his successor. When a pharaoh died, joining Osiris, the new pharaoh becomes the "Living Horus". Does that help?
A:The New Testament was written in Greek, and its authors would therefore have been familiar with the cult of Horus. In addition, Keel and Uehlinger (Gods, Goddesses and Images of God in Ancient Israel) say that Horus is the best-documented foreign god in the onomasticon (derivation of personal names used on seals) of Israel and Judah from Iron Age II, but particularly Judah in the late monarchy. In Phoenicia the Egyptian deity most commonly represented on high quality scarabs was Isis, nursing the infant Horus, much like later representations of Mary and Jesus. Although these scarabs were not found in Judah, the onomasticon shows that Horus was worshipped there, and Judahites would have been familiar with the imagery. It is not impossible that Horus remained, at least culturally, part of Jewish religious thought into the first century CE. It is also very possible that similarities between Horus and Jesus are simply coincidences.
