Nave. (Hebrew, gao). Anything convex or arched, as the boss of a shield, Job 15:26; the eyebrows, Leviticus 14:9; an eminent place. Ezekiel 16:31. It is rendered once only in the plural, "naves," 1 Kings 7:33, meaning the centres of the wheels, in which the spokes are inserted, that is, the hubs. In Ezekiel 1:18, it is rendered twice, "rings"' and margin, "strakes", an old word apparently used for the nave, (hub), of a wheel and also, more probably, for the felloe or the tire, as making the streak or stroke upon the ground.
