SOSTRATUS.—The governor of the citadel at Jerusalem under Antiochus Epiphanes (2Ma_4:27 (28), 29).
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


sos?tra-tus (Σώστρατος, Sṓstratos, in Codex Venetus Σος-, Sos-): ?The governor of the citadel? of Jerusalem under Antiochus IV (Epiphanes). His duty was to gather the revenues of the city and province for the imperial treasury. He made a new departure in demanding from Menelaus direct the sum promised to the king in 2 Macc 4:27 ff (for Jason had the privilege of sending the money by his own messenger to the king (2 Macc 4:23)). This claim the usurper Menelaus disputed; consequently he and the governor were both summoned to appear before the king. No more is told, and Sostratus is otherwise unknown.
