International Standard Bible Encyclopedia (1915)

(Codex Alexandrinus Swete and Fritzsche Thrasaios; Codex Venetus Tharsiou; Codex Venetus(a) Tharseou; Conjecture of Dr. Hort Tharsea; the [[King James Version]], Thraseas): The father of APOLLONIUS (which see) (2 Macc 3:5). the [[Revised Version]] margin gives "Or `Thrasca.’" The Greek text is probably corrupt. Perhaps the true reading is "Apollonius of Tarsus".
