Jacob of Kefar
Jacob of Kefar Soma or Jacob of Kefar Sakanin, is a character described as a disciple of Yeshu Ben Pandera. Rabbi Eliezer Ben Hyrcanus was arrested for heresy (identified in the Talmud as being a Shammaite who did not believe in Gentile salvation, the minim likewise only considered a convert to be worthy of salvation) either in 95 CE during Dominitian's persecution, or during Emperor Trajan's persecution of the Christians in 109 CE (according to Herford & Maccoby).
