'''[[Jesus Christ]]''' was a first-century Jewish preacher and religious leader. He is the central figure of [[Christianity]], the world's largest religion. Most Christians believe he is the incarnation of [[Yahweh|God]] the Son and the awaited messiah (the Christ), prophesied in the Hebrew [[Bible]]. Christian doctrines include the beliefs that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit, was born of a virgin named Mary, performed miracles, founded the Christian Church, died by crucifixion as a sacrifice to achieve atonement for sin, rose from the dead, and ascended into Heaven, from where he will return.
'''[[Thoth]]''' is an ancient Egyptian deity. In art, he was often depicted as a man with the head of an ibis or a baboon, animals sacred to him. His feminine counterpart was Seshat, and his wife was Ma'at. He was the god of the [[moon]], wisdom, writing, hieroglyphs, science, magic, art, and judgment. His Greek equivalent is [[Hermes Trismegistus|Hermes]].


Jesus is also revered in other religions. In [[Islam]], Jesus (often referred to by his Quranic name ʿĪsā) is considered the penultimate [[prophet]] of God and the messiah. Muslims believe Jesus was born of a virgin, but was neither God nor a son of God. The Quran states that Jesus never claimed to be divine. Most Muslims do not believe that he was killed or crucified, but that God raised him into Heaven while he was still alive.
Thoth's chief temple was located in the city of Hermopolis. Later known as el-Ashmunein in Egyptian Arabic, the Temple of Thoth was mostly destroyed before the beginning of the [[Christianity|Christian]] era, but its very large pronaos was still standing in 1826.

Thoth played many vital and prominent roles in [[Egyptian religion]], such as maintaining the universe, and being one of the two deities (the other being Ma'at) who stood on either side of [[Ra]]'s solar barque. In the later history of ancient Egypt, Thoth became heavily associated with the arbitration of godly disputes, the art of [[ritual magic]], the system of writing, and the judgment of the dead.
