Well, some concerns
1. The employment of descriptive idioms between two characters in a narrative doesn’t support a conflation of the characters. As an example, the set of all characters rhetorically described as The Fair Haired doesn’t reduce or imply any reduction to a single character in the set.
2 There is no one who has been killed, and yet lives. Not one, not two.
3 The Paul and Jesus of gospel are composite characters, sure, but it’s unclear how this supports the contention made in the op, particularly as that third character isn’t a composite character like the others. This is a way that they are different, not similar.
4 This is fan fiction.
5 This is numerology.
6 This is self promotion.
It’s not a compelling case, even though there are certainly a lot of interesting similarities between the narratives of character. In general, they seem to be more like a vague parameter of effective or traditional storytelling in cultural context. Sort of like his every pop song is just the same few chords and progressions. This may go to the construction of the narrative, but even there it falls short of the op claim. They’re two characters sung about in the same way in the same song in the manner to which the audience was accustomed. Similarities of form, not substance.
