You can add the usages of "Biblical" and "Biblical Latin" to this name, for the name appears several times in the English and Latin Old Testament: once in the Book of Esther and three times in the deuterocanonical book of 2 Maccabees.Note that the Latin Old Testament tends to use the erroneous spelling Dosithaeus (also Dosithæus) in the Book of Esther, but the correct spelling Dositheus in 2 Maccabees.Sources used:
