Ear \Ear\, n. [AS. e[a0]re; akin to OFries. [a0]re, [a0]r, OS.       [?]ra, D. oor, OHG. [?]ra, G. ohr, Icel. eyra, Sw. [94]ra,       Dan. [94]re, Goth. auso, L. auris, Lith. ausis, Russ. ukho,       Gr. [?]; cf. L. audire to hear, Gr. [?], Skr. av to favor,       protect. Cf. {Auricle}, {Orillon}.]       1. The organ of hearing; the external ear.          Note: In man and the higher vertebrates, the organ of hearing                is very complicated, and is divisible into three parts:                the external ear, which includes the pinna or auricle                and meatus or external opening; the middle ear, drum,                or tympanum; and the internal ear, or labyrinth. The                middle ear is a cavity connected by the Eustachian tube                with the pharynx, separated from the opening of the                external ear by the tympanic membrane, and containing a                chain of three small bones, or ossicles, named malleus,                incus, and stapes, which connect this membrane with the                internal ear. The essential part of the internal ear                where the fibers of the auditory nerve terminate, is                the membranous labyrinth, a complicated system of sacs                and tubes filled with a fluid (the endolymph), and                lodged in a cavity, called the bony labyrinth, in the                periotic bone. The membranous labyrinth does not                completely fill the bony labyrinth, but is partially                suspended in it in a fluid (the perilymph). The bony                labyrinth consists of a central cavity, the vestibule,                into which three semicircular canals and the canal of                the cochlea (spirally coiled in mammals) open. The                vestibular portion of the membranous labyrinth consists                of two sacs, the utriculus and sacculus, connected by a                narrow tube, into the former of which three membranous                semicircular canals open, while the latter is connected                with a membranous tube in the cochlea containing the                organ of Corti. By the help of the external ear the                sonorous vibrations of the air are concentrated upon                the tympanic membrane and set it vibrating, the chain                of bones in the middle ear transmits these vibrations                to the internal ear, where they cause certain delicate                structures in the organ of Corti, and other parts of                the membranous labyrinth, to stimulate the fibers of                the auditory nerve to transmit sonorous impulses to the                brain.          2. The sense of hearing; the perception of sounds; the power             of discriminating between different tones; as, a nice ear             for music; -- in the singular only.                         Songs . . . not all ungrateful to thine ear.                                                                               --Tennyson.          3. That which resembles in shape or position the ear of an             animal; any prominence or projection on an object, --             usually one for support or attachment; a lug; a handle;             as, the ears of a tub, a skillet, or dish. The ears of a             boat are outside kneepieces near the bow. See Illust. of             {Bell}.          4. (Arch.)             (a) Same as {Acroterium}.             (b) Same as {Crossette}.          5. Privilege of being kindly heard; favor; attention.                         Dionysius . . . would give no ear to his suit.                                                                               --Bacon.                         Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears.                                                                               --Shak.          {About the ears}, in close proximity to; near at hand.          {By the ears}, in close contest; as, to set by the ears; to             fall together by the ears; to be by the ears.          {Button ear} (in dogs), an ear which falls forward and             completely hides the inside.          {Ear finger}, the little finger.          {Ear of Dionysius}, a kind of ear trumpet with a flexible             tube; -- named from the Sicilian tyrant, who constructed a             device to overhear the prisoners in his dungeons.          {Ear sand} (Anat.), otoliths.

It consists             of a tube broad at the outer end, and narrowing to a             slender extremity which enters the ear, thus collecting             and intensifying sounds so as to assist the hearing of a             partially deaf person.          {Ear vesicle} (Zo[94]l.), a simple auditory organ, occurring             in many worms, mollusks, etc. It consists of a small sac             containing a fluid and one or more solid concretions or             otocysts.          {Rose ear} (in dogs), an ear which folds backward and shows             part of the inside.          {To give ear to}, to listen to; to heed, as advice or one             advising.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Ear       used frequently in a figurative sense (Ps. 34:15). To "uncover       the ear" is to show respect to a person (1 Sam. 20:2 marg.). To       have the "ear heavy", or to have "uncircumcised ears" (Isa.       6:10), is to be inattentive and disobedient. To have the ear       "bored" through with an awl was a sign of perpetual servitude       (Ex. 21:6).
