<p> ( Κενδεβαίος ) , a general left by [[Antiochus]] VII (q.v.) in command ( στρατηγός v. r. ἐπιστρατηγός and ὑποστρατηγός ) of the sea-board ( παραλίας ) of [[Palestine]] ( 1 [[Maccabees]] 15:38 sq.) after the defeat of Tryphon, B.C. 138. He fortified [[Kedron]] (q.v.) and harassed the Jews for some time, but was afterwards defeated by [[Judas]] and John, the sons of [[Simon]] Maccabaeus, with great loss ( 1 Maccabees 16:1-10). The account of [[Josephus]] (Ant. 13:7, 3; War, 1:2, 2) is somewhat different. </p> | |||
