finger
FIN'GER, noun fing'ger.
1. One of the extreme parts of the hand, a small member shooting to a point. The fingers have joints which peculiarly fit them to be the instruments of catching, seizing and holding. When we speak of the fingers generally, we include the thumb; as the five fingers. But we often make a distinction. The fingers and thumb consist of fifteen bones; three to each. The word is applied to some other animals as well as to man.
2. A certain measure. We say a finger's breadth, or the breadth of the four fingers, or of three fingers.
3. The hand.
Who teacheth my fingers to fight. Psalms 146:1.
4. The finger or fingers of God, in scripture, signify his power, strength or operation.
