Halakhah for Sanhedrin 90:18
עד כאן לא פליגי אלא דמר סבר רחובה דמעיקרא בעינן ומר סבר רחובה דהשתא נמי כדמעיקרא דמי אבל דכ"ע בעינן קרא כדכתיב
because it is written, And they shall lay hold on him,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Ibid, 19. ');"><sup>34</sup></span> — this excludes those with hands or fingers cut off; and they shall bring him out, so excluding lame [parents]; and they shall say, excluding the dumb; this our son,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Showing that they must point him out. ');"><sup>35</sup></span>
Sefer HaChinukh
To hang one who is liable for hanging: That we were commanded to hang one who is liable for hanging by the court. And it is known that all those who are hung are first stoned. And about this it is stated (Deuteronomy 21:22), "and you shall hang him on a pole." And the law of hanging is with a blasphemer and one who worships idolatry only - like the words of the sages in the chapter [entitled] Nigmar HaDin (Sanhedrin 45b), who argue against that [position] of Rabbi Eliezer, who says [that] all those who are stoned are hung.
