Farther, it is not likely that he did it by his own sword, but by that of the executioner. What kings, magistrates, and generals do, in an official way, by their subjects, servants, or soldiers, they are said to do themselves:--{qui facit per alterum, facit per se.} hewed.Nu 25:7,8; 1Ki 18:40; Isa 34:6; Jer 48:10
