>>19341777The soldier sent by Juba II to watch over Mary Magdalene,- whom he was a sponsor of after visiting her with Octavians grandson on an expedition there.
Juba II's wife Cleopatra Selene II was the biggest feminist of the roman era - so him sponsoring Magdalene was more of a gift to his wife than to her.
Oh, and the other Mary was given Jesus (aforementioned couples youngest son) as an adoptive son because BOTH of their parents got assassinated, plus Caesar, and later on even Octavian.
Giving away Jesus was more than justified.
In fact, given their politican situation - it was a miracle that their lineage survived at all and no sane civilian would envy them despite their power.
"Pantera" is a romanized nickname given to the remaining soldiers of the Paaneah priesthood of Egypt,- which is the priesthood that descends from Joseph "Zaphenat Paaneah" - whom the Egyptians equated as a descendant of Enoch both in heritage and capabilities.
In fact, the name itself means "Fathered by Enoch"
tldr;
Pantera was literally, unironically the real life Obi-Wan Kenobi.
picrel for disbelievers.
