Who in society is similar to the archetype of Osiris, the Egyptian God?

Jesus. Osiris was originally a god of land-fertility. He was murdered by his brother Set, god of chaos. His wife, Isis, learned magic and resurrected her husband. He thus became god of the dead and the underworld. Osiris was also Judge of the Dead, and these myths greatly influenced the Jesus myth
