NO. The executor of the estate is the person appointed by the court to pay the debts, distribute the property as directed in the will, file a tax return, etc. A beneficiary is a person who receives a gift under the will.

Does the executor of an estate have to pay the debts of a beneficery with the inheritance of that beneficery or can he just distribute the inherintace an let the beneficery be responsible for paying?

The executor distributes the money to the beneficiaries after the estate's debts have been settled to the satisfaction of the court. Each beneficiary is responsible for what they do with the money. There is no requirement, and it would be detrimental, for the executor to play bookkeeper and accountant and pay of the debts of the beneficiaries of the estate.
