Leaf, Leaves:
The word occurs in the Authorized Version either in singular or plural number in three different senses.
(1.) Leaf of a tree. The righteous are often compared to green leaves (Jeremiah 17:8). The ungodly, on the other hand, are "as an oak whose leaf fadeth." (Isaiah 1:30).
(2.) Leaves of doors. The Hebrew word, which occurs very many times in the Bible, and which in 1 Kings 6:32 (margin) and 1 Kings 6:34 is translated "leaves" in the Authorized Version, signifies beams, ribs, sides, etc.
(3.) Leaves of a book or roll occurs in this sense only in Jeremiah 36:23. The Hebrew word (literally doors) would perhaps be more correctly translated columns.
