(Strong's #5418 — Noun Masculine — phragmos — frag-mos' )

denotes any sort of fence, hedge, palings or wall (akin to phrasso, "to fence in, stop"). It is used (a) in its literal sense, in Matthew 21:33 , lit. "(he put) a hedge (around);" Mark 12:1; Luke 14:23; (b) metaphorically, of the "partition" which separated Gentile from Jew, which was broken down by Christ through the efficacy of His expiatory sacrifice, Ephesians 2:14 .
