Dositheiis<\/h2>\n

1. “A priest and Levite,” who, according to the apocryphal additions to the book of Esther, carried the letter of Mordecai respecting the feast of Purim to Egypt (Esther 11:1, 2). It is scarcely likely that he is identical with the Dositheus who is mentioned by Josephus (Rev 2:5) as one of the “commanders of the forces” of Ptolemy VI Philometor, though he probably lived in the reign of that monarch. Josephus also speaks of a Dositheus who betrayed to Herod a hostile letter of Hyrcanus (Ant. 15:6, 2).<\/p>\n

2. One of the generals of Judas Maccabaeus (2Ma 12:19; 2Ma 12:24).<\/p>\n

3. A cavalry soldier in the army of Judas Maccabieus, of the company of Bacenor (2Ma 12:35).<\/p>\n

4. A renegade Jew in the camp of Ptolemy Philopator (3Ma 1:3).<\/p>\n
