I know Egyptian Mythology one of the world's greatest messes, but, I don't remember Horus being Osiris's brother. Or at least, being his brother and son at the same time.

That said, Horus himself was identified and eventually merged with many other deities, so maybe one of them was previously seen as one of Osiris's siblings.

I have seen different versions of his tale, however, which do vary his lineage:

-Son of Nephtys and Set, rejected by Set because Horus actually loved mankind.

-Son of Nephtys and Osiris, born from an affair. In some versions, Osiris was drunk while at it. In other versions, Nephtys pretended to be Isis. In some versions, the very reason Set mutilated Osiris was because of this.
