# hang #
## Definition: ##
The term "hang" means to suspend something or someone above the ground.
* Death by hanging typically is done using a rope noose that is tied around a person's neck and suspended from an elevated object, like a tree limb. Judas killed himself by hanging.
* Jesus' death by hanging on a wooden cross was done differently: the soldiers suspended him by nailing his hands (or wrists) and his feet to the cross.
* To hang someone always refers to a way of killing someone by hanging them with a rope around their neck.
