Reins. (that is, kidneys). In the ancient system of physiology, the kidneys were believed to be the seat of desire and longing, which accounts for their often being coupled, with the heart. Psa_7:9; Psa_26:2; Jer_11:20; Jer_17:10, etc.

rānz (כּליה, kilyāh; νεφρὸς, nephrós, words promiscuously translated ?heart,? ?inward parts,? ?kidneys? or ?reins.? The latter word, which is derived from Latin ?renes? through Old French ?reins?, has given place in modern English to the word ?kidneys? (see Skeat, Concise Etymological Dictionary of the English Language, 398). the Revised Version (British and American) has, however, retained the older word, at least in the margin, in all passages in which it is found in the King James Version): According to Hebrew psychology the reins are the seat of the deepest emotions and affections of man, which God alone can fully know. Thus the Revised Version (British and American) has substituted ?heart? for ?reins? in the text of Job_19:27; Psa_7:9; Psa_16:7; Psa_26:2; Psa_73:21; Pro_23:16; Jer_11:20; Jer_12:2; Jer_17:10; Jer_20:12; the translation ?inward parts? is found but once (Psa_139:13). In one passage the King James Version has translated the Hebrew ḥālāc (?loins?) with ?reins? (Isa_11:5), where the Revised Version (British and American) has rightly substituted ?waist? (which see). The Greek word nephros (which is etymologically allied to the Middle English nere, Get. Niere; see Skeat, ibid, 231, under the word ?Kidney?) is found in 1 Macc 2:24; Rev_2:23. See KIDNEYS.

Job_16:13 (a) The word is used as a type of feelings, experiences, desires and thoughts. (See also Psa_7:9; Psa_16:7; Psa_26:2; Pro_23:16; Jer_11:20; Jer_17:10; Rev_2:23).

Reins
a name for the kidneys, derived from the Latin renes, and in our English Bible employed in those passages of the Old Test. in which the ierm for kidneys (כְּלָיוֹת, kelayoth) is used metaphorically, i.e. except in the Pentateuch and in Isa_34:6, where this word is rendered “kidneys.” In the ancient system of physiology the kidneys, from the sensitiveness of that part of the person, were believed to be the seat of desire and longing, which accounts for their often being coupled with the heart (Psa_7:9; Psa_26:2; Jer_11:20; Jer_17:10,: etc.). SEE KIDNEYS.
The word “reins” is once used (Isa_11:5) as the equivalent of חֲלָצָיַם, chalatsayim, elsewhere translated “loins” (q.v.).
