Zoroastrianism co-existed in the Middle East with Judaism. There is a strong indication that scholars of both religions respected each other and might have considered each other to be the same or similar religion with Zoroastrianism being more mystical (Kabalic). Though there were several sects of the Egyptian faith that were practically monotheistic, Zoroastrianism is currently believed to be the earliest verifiable mono-theistic religion. ADD: The “Three Kings” that visited the young Jesus are often believed to have been Zoroastrianian priests.
