The meaning of Fence in the Bible
(From Easton's Bible Dictionary)
(Heb. gader), Numbers 22:24 (RSV). Fences were constructions of unmortared stones, to protect gardens, vineyards, sheepfolds, etc. From various causes they were apt to bulge out and fall (Psalms 62:3). In Psalms 80:12, RSV (see Isaiah 5:5), the psalmist says, "Why hast thou broken down her fences?" Serpents delight to lurk in the crevices of such fences (Eccl 10:8; Compare Amos 5:19).
