What are Hinges?
        HING'ES
     The translation of two Hebrew words. The hinges of Prov 26:14; were probably the pivots inserted in sockets, both above and below, upon which Oriental doors are even now hung. The hinges of 1 Kgs 7:50 were "probably of the Egyptian kind, attached to the upper and lower sides of the door."
