2 Maccabees 10:11

11 So when he had come to the crown, he set one Lysias over the affairs of his realm, and appointed him chief governor of Coelesyria and Phoenicia.

2 Maccabees 10:11 In-Context

9 And this was the end of Antiochus, called Epiphanes.
10 Now will we declare the acts of Antiochus Eupator, who was the son of this wicked man, gathering briefly the calamities of the wars.
11 So when he had come to the crown, he set one Lysias over the affairs of his realm, and appointed him chief governor of Coelesyria and Phoenicia.
12 For Ptolemy, who was called Macron, choosing rather to do justice unto the Jews for the wrong that had been done unto them, endeavored to continue peace with them.
13 Thereupon, being accused by the king's friends before Eupator and called traitor at every word because he had left Cyprus, which Philometor had committed unto him, and departed to Antiochus Epiphanes, and seeing that he was in no honorable position, he was so discouraged that he poisoned himself and died.
