Beheading
This was not a form of capital punishment in the O.T. Ishbosheth was beheaded by his murderers that his head might be carried to David, 2Sa 4:7-8; as Goliath’s head had been carried to Saul. In the N.T. John the Baptist was killed in the Roman manner of beheading with the sword. Mat 14:10; Mar 6:16; Mar 6:27; Luk 9:9. In Rev 20:4, those ‘beheaded’ for the witness of Jesus, may be killed in other ways, for the word signifies ‘to cut with an axe,’ having no particular reference to the head.
