Comfort was born December 5, 1949, in New Zealand to a Jewish mother and a father whom he has described as "a Gentile [who] was open to the things of God". According to Comfort's autobiography, his parents put "Methodist" on his birth certificate because his mother feared the possibility of "another Hitler", but he was given no religious instruction as a child. Comfort identifies himself as Jewish.

He did not pursue higher education.

elder voices tell
stories of a desert ghost.
The legend of a man
swallowed by the sand.

swallowed by the sand.
Fading...
into the shadows
of the legend
you became.
Fading...
into the mystery
and the romance
