A fascinating look at the genealogy of Jesus and mysteries surrounding the nativity, mainly from the perspective of ESOTERIC CHRISTIANITY.

"The name Zarathustra, later also known as Zoroaster (or Nazarathos), means the great lustrous or shining star. Not only is the etheric body, reflecting the human head and four limbs, shaped like a star, but in Zarathustra’s case, he was the one who had seen the Ahura Mazdao (the Great Aura), or Christ, sojourning in the Sun, had predicted his future Incarnation on Earth, and was thus himself, as the ultimate vehicle of the Christ, also known by a similar name. The knowledge of all of this existed in those initiated from the time of Zarathustra, and these were known as Magi, or kings by virtue of the magical nature of their abilities in regard to ruling humanity (recalling that the authorities in all fields were the initiated priests in ancient times). These initiates were able to see in the etheric world the descent of their master, Zarathustra, into incarnation in Bethlehem, and this is the “star” that brought them there."

"The Ego of the Solomon Jesus left him and entered into Nathan Jesus who until then had only the provisional Ego rising from the unspoiled etheric body held back from Adam. Deprived of its human element, the Solomon child withered and died soon after. Nathan Jesus now consisted of the physical body descended from David through Joseph, the unspoiled etheric body held back from Adam, the purified astral body of the Buddha, and the most advanced Ego humanity had produced, that of the ancient Zarathustra and all it had accumulated through many succeeding incarnations—including the one as Zarathos who taught the middle period prophets in Babylon. One of these prophets, called “second Isaiah,” had been able to foresee the birth of this great soul as the suffering servant that the Christ Spirit would use."
