Lamentations5:12
12 Princes are hanged up by their hand : the faces of elders were not honoured.
Most probably by the Enemies hands, though some would have it by their hands intimating a more sharp and lingring death. Hanging was an ancient way in the Eastern Countries of putting malefactors to death, Gen. 40.19.
Marginal references: Isa. 47.6.
