The Biblical Magi were the ancient Chaldean and Zoroastrian (Mithraic) priest caste of Mesopotamia whose esoteric Mystery teachings were disseminated after the fall of Babylon in the 6th century BC by captive Isrealites that were freed by Cyrus the Great. In his book Morals and Dogma, Albert Pike states that the Oriental (Aryan) Kabbalah of the Magi predates and was later adopted into Jewish mysticism, which was then also encoded and integrated into Esoteric Christianity or Gnosticism, Hermeticism, Alchemy, Sufi sects, and ancient Greek and Egyptian Mystery School religions (Mysteries). Kabbalah was linked to the Knights Templar, Rosicrucians, and Scottish Rite Freemasonry.
