Bacenor — Tyndale Open Bible Dictionary

One of Judas Maccabeus’s officers, according to 2 Maccabees 12:35. The name, however, can be shown to be a corrupt form of “Toubiani,” so that the verse should read, “Dositheus, a Toubian, who was on horseback” (see 2 Macc 12:17).

While he planned to take the accursed man alive, one of the Thracian cavalry bore down on him and disabled his shoulder, and so Gorgias escaped to Mareshah.
