အက္ခရာ 6:11

11 ၎င်းနည်း အကြင်သူသည် ဤအမိန့်တော်ကို ငြင်းဆန်လျှင်၊ ထိုသူ၏အိမ်မှ သစ်တိုင်ကို နှုတ်ယူ၍ စိုက်ပြီးမှ သူ့ကိုလည်း ဆွဲချစေ။ သူ့အိမ်ကိုလည်း နောက် ချေးပုံဖြစ်စေဟု ငါအမိန့်တော်ရှိ၏။

Reciprocal: 2 Samuel 21:6 - hang Daniel 3:28 - and have

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Also I have made a decree, that whosoever shall alter this word,.... Act contrary to this command, will not obey it, but as much as in him lies changes and revokes it:

let timber be pulled down from his house, and being set up, let him, be hanged thereon; that is, let a beam be taken from it, and a gallows or gibbet made of it, and hang him on it:

and let his house be made a dunghill for this; be pulled down, and never rebuilt more, :-,

:-.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Being set up, let him be hanged thereon - Rather, “let him be lifted up and crucified upon it.” Crucifixion was the most common form of capital punishment among the Persians.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 11. Let timber be pulled down — Whether this refers to the punishment of hanging and gibbeting of whipping at a post, or of empaling, is not quite clear. In China they tie culprits to posts; and the executioner cuts them open while alive, takes out their bowels, &c. Empaling thrusting a sharp stake through the body till it comes out at the side of the neck, or hanging, seems to be intended here.

Let his house be made a dunghill — Let it be reduced to ruins, and never more used, except for the most sordid and unclean purposes.
