Encyclopedie , Jewish Encyclopedia, THEUDAS, Wilhelm Bacher Schulim Ochser, THEUDAS; Pseudo-Messiah, who appeared during the consulate of Cuspius Fadus and succeeded in winning a large number of adherents. In proof of his Messianic mission he is said to have promised to lead his followers across the Jordan after dividing its waters simply by his word. Regarding this as indicative of open rebellion against Rome, Cuspius sent a division of cavalry against Theudas and his followers, who were almost entirely annihilated (comp. Acts v. 36). Theudas was decapitated, and his head was carried to Jerusalem as a trophy of victory. Jona Lendering , Livius, Articles on ancient history, , Messianic claimants (9)
