Fetter
(זֵק, zek, bond or chain in general, only in the plur. Job_36:8, else-where chains." Psa_149:8; Isa_45:14; Nah_3:10; כֶּבֶל, ke'bel, sing. Perhaps the link joining the fetter, Psa_105:18; plur. and of iron, 149:8; נְחשֶׁת-necho'sheth, brazen, in the dual, the appropriate term, Lam_3:7; Jdg_16:21; 2Sa_3:34; 2Ki_25:7; Jer_39:7; Jer_52:11; πέδη, implying that they were for the feet, in the plur., Mar_5:4; Luk_8:29; Sir_6:24; Sir_6:29; Sir_21:19), shackles or chains for binding prisoners, whether by the wrists or ankles. The Philistines bound Samson with fetters of copper (Jdg_16:21). Manasseh and Zedekiab, king of Judah were bound with fetters by the Chaldaens and carried to Babylon (2Ch_33:11; 2Ki_25:7). Manacles for the feet and hands are represented on the Assyrian monuments (Layard, Nineveh, ii, 376; Kitto, Daily Bible Illustrations, ii, 437). SEE CHAIN. 'One mode of securing prisoners among the Egyptians, as depicted on the monuments,-was to enclose their hands in an elongated fetter of wood, made of two opposite segments, nailed together at each end, such as are used for a similar purpose in Egypt at the present day (Wilkinson, Ancient Egyptians, i, 410, abridgm.).
