Biblical king, that man getting stick (5)
I believe the answer is:
herod
'biblical king' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'man getting stick' is the wordplay.
'man' becomes 'he'.
'getting' says to put letters next to each other.
'stick' becomes 'rod' (I've seen this before).
'he'+'rod'='HEROD'
'that' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for herod that I've seen before include "Massacre-of-Innocents king" , "Ruler of Palestine when Jesus was born" , "Biblical king of Judea" , "King of Judea in the time of Jesus" , "King of Judea who ordered the death of children under two in Bethlehem" .)
