Great "sea story". You knew that Mattew wrote about Yeshuah bin
Pendara,
not Yeshuah bin Joseph (Jesus) who lived some 50 years later?

Wow. Are you ever confused.

Yeshuah Ben Stada Ben Pidara is the name that the Jews gave Jesus of
Nazareth when they wrote about him in the Talmud. The Talmudic
tradition agrees with the Christian tradition that the mother of Jesus
became pregnant out of wedlock, but instead of Yahweh the Talmud
identifies a mortal man, "Stada" as the father, and a woman of
questionable virtue "Pidara" as the mother.

Most of the references to Jesus in the Talmud were expunged in the 16th
Century when the Spanish Inquisition was sytematically slaughtering
Jews in the name of Christ, but the copies that predate the rewrites
use: ben Stada ben Pidara.....(son of Stada with the appendage son of
Pidara) to denote a birth our of wedlock.

It's not my intent to present the Talmudic history of Jesus as more
accurate than or inferior to the Gospel history, but I will point out
that there were not two different men as you seem to believe.
