Executioner:
The post of executioner was one of high dignity. Potiphar was "captain of the executioners." (Genesis 37:36 see margin). That the "captain of the guard" himself occasionally performed the duty of an executioner appears from 1 Kings 2:25; 2:34.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
