“Question & Answer”

Question:
How did Isaiah meet his death?
Answer:

The time and manner of Isaiah’s death are not specified in either the Bible or other primary sources. ( It reads in Hebrews 11:36-38 NIV> Found this: Some faced jeers and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment. They were put to death by stoning; they were sawed in two; they were killed by the sword. They went about in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, persecuted, and mistreated, the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, living in caves and in holes in the ground.) Tradition claims Isaiah met his death at the hands of King Manasseh (695–642 B.C.), who feared for his throne. Some maintain that Isaiah died by being cut in two with a wooden saw. Other reports claim Isaiah died when he hid from Manasseh in a tree in Silwan, and then he was sawn in half.
