11:37: (Others) were sawed apart.
So according to the tradition, particularly the prophet Isaiah.
Jerusalem Talmud Sanhedrin 10.28C.37: Manasseh ran after Isaiah and
wanted to kill him; but he fled before him. He fled to a cedar that swallowed
him up with the exception of the tassels of his overcoat. Then someone came and
reported it to Manasseh. He said to them, “Go and saw apart the cedar!” They
sawed the cedar apart and blood was seen flowing. And Yahweh was not willing to
forgive this, and so Manasseh has no share in the future (= in the future
world). — See further legendary material in Mart. Isa. 5:2–14; b. Yebam. 49B. ‖
Babylonian Talmud Yebamot 49B and Sanhedrin 103B are also general: Manasseh
killed Isaiah. (Hermann L. Strack and Paul Billerbeck, A
