Its not in The Bible. The account has been taken from ancient texts such as the Talmud. The only account that can be referenced to the sawing in half is in Hebrews 11:37.

Nobody did! In fact, the person that got crucified was NOT Jesus, it was a soldier who god changed his face to make him look like Jesus. What happened to Jesus? Well, let's just say that he is "living in the skies".


Is the prophet Isaiah's death in the Bible?

Not directly and maybe not at all. There is a tradition that states that Isaiah was executed by the wicked King Manasseh by sawing him in half (Manasseh was not a very nice man). We may note in this regard that Isaiah's prophecy ceases with Hezekiah and Manasseh succeeded him. (Isaiah 1:1 contains the list of Kings of Judah under which Isaiah prophesied) We also know that Manasseh 'shed innocent blood very much.' Most certainly this refers to the passing of living children into the outstretched arms of the idol Moloch. But it may also refer to the execution of people like Isaiah who was obviously innocent. If the tradition is accurate - and it is certainly possible from what we know of Manasseh plus the historical time-frame - then Hebrews 11:37 '....they were sawn asunder..' is a reference to this murderous crime. If Hebrews 11:37 is not a reference to Isaiah then it is not mentioned. In any case the Bible itself does not, without recourse to tradition, mention it.

Isaiah was the considered the first prophet and he was the one who left us with the prophecy of the coming and crucifixion of Jesus so basically his whole book was a summary of the entire Bible. Isaiah is far from a "miniature". His preaching saved Jerusalem from destruction! As a matter of fact, the name "Isaiah" means "The Salvation of the Lord", so clearly he was pretty special for God to name him that
