Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [1]

Esdris . Mentioned only 2Ma 12:36 . The text is probably corrupt. AV [Note: Authorized Version.] has Gorgias , and this is likely enough to be correct.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [2]

ez´dris , es´dris ( Ἔσδρις , Ésdris ): A leader mentioned in 2 Macc 12:36 in best texts and adopted in the Revised Version (British and American) for Gorgias of the King James Version. Grotius conjectured "men of Ephron" from 12:27.
