<p> ''''' sen´siz ''''' : The translation of αἰσθητήριον , <i> ''''' aisthētḗrion ''''' </i> (&nbsp; Hebrews 5:14 , "those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil"). The word means, primarily, the seat of the senses, the region of feeling; in the [[Septuagint]] of &nbsp;Jeremiah 4:19 , it represents the [[Hebrew]] <i> ''''' ḳı̄r ''''' </i> , "the walls of the heart" (see the Revised Version (British and American)), and is used to denote the <i> internal </i> sense or faculty of perceiving and judging, which in &nbsp; Hebrews 5:14 is regarded as becoming perfected by use or exercise (compare &nbsp; Ephesians 4:12 f; &nbsp; 1 Timothy 4:7; &nbsp;2 Peter 3:18 ). </p> <p> In 2 [[Esdras]] 10:36 we have "Or is my sense deceived, or my soul in a dream?"
