Yazosh was the son of [[Miriam Magdalena]] and [[Joses Pantera]] the (step)brother of [[Rebbe Yehoshuah Minzaret]].
His story is related in the [[Toledot YeshuTeliya Ye.Sh.U.]] and in Karaite sources.
He was nicknamed '''מסיח''' by the Karaites.
Yazosh is also known as Yeshu Natzri and Dositheus and Ben Stada. He is the traditional Eastern Yiddish Ashkenazi version of Krampus who appears on the last night of Saturnalia.
He is admired in Karaite sources such as for example Judah Hadasi but his followers are criticized for abandoning him and changing his teachings to comply with Roman Christianity. Rabbinical sources on the other hand criticize him and defend the disciples who wrote the Evangelion as agents of Rabbinical Judaism.
