(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.
