Pandera (Pantheras) was the name, according to Origen, held by a Davidic family known in the centuries bridging either side of the Common Era. One member of that family called Joses (the half brother of the Christian Jesus) is said to have known Judah Pappas' wife Mary Magdalene of whom Ben Stada was born. Karaite Jewish tradition considers that son of Magdalena to have been (either the the reincarnation of or the adopted son of) the Christian Jesus but that position is rejected by other Jews.
