<p> ( יתד , <i> ''''' yāthēdh ''''' </i> , from <i> ''''' yāthadh ''''' </i> , "to drive in a peg"(?)): A cylindrical piece of wood or metal (e.g. brass, Exodus 27:19 ) such as that used by weavers in beating up the woof in the loom ( Judges 16:14 , where [[Delilah]] fastened Samson's hair with the "pin"); or as a peg for hanging ( Ezekiel 15:3; compare Isaiah 22:23 f; Ezra 9:8 ); or as a tent-pin, such as those used in the tabernacle ( Exodus 27:19; Exodus 35:18; Exodus 38:20 , Exodus 38:31; Exodus 39:40; Numbers 3:37; Numbers 4:32; Judges 4:21 , where the King James Version translates "nail," the Revised Version (British and American) "tent-pin"; compare Judges 5:26 , where [[Hebrew]] has the same word, English [[Versions]] of the [[Bible]] "nail"). The tent-pin, like that of today, was probably sharpened at one end ( Judges 4:21 ) and so shaped at the other as to permit the attaching of the cords so frequently mentioned in the same connection ( Exodus 35:18; Exodus 39:40; Numbers 3:37; Numbers 4:32; compare Isaiah 33:20 ). From the acts of driving in the tent-pin ( <i> '''''ṭāḳa‛''''' </i> ) and pulling it out ( <i> '''''nāsā'''''' </i> ) are derived the technical Hebrew terms for pitching a tent and for breaking camp.

(יָתֵד, yathed), a tent-pin, spoken of the copper pegs driven into the ground to hold the cords of the court (Exodus 27:19; Exodus 35:18; Exodus 38:20; Exodus 38:31; Exodus 39:40; Numbers 3:37; Numbers 4:32), or for any other purpose (Judges 16:14; Ezekiel 15:3), being the same word elsewhere usually rendered "nail" (Judges 4:21-22; v, 26; Ezra 9:8; Isaiah 22:22; Isaiah 22:25; Zechariah 10:4), occasionally "stake" (Isaiah 33:20; Isaiah 54:2), once "paddle" (Deuteronomy 23:13).

Pins, in the modern sense of the word, used for fastening the dress, were no doubt in use among the Hebrews, as we know they were among the Egyptians, but they were frequently made of bone or wood, and bore a considerable resemblance to skewers, as did those used even in England till a comparatively recent period.
