Ancient Hebrew Singing Recorded
in the Bible—part 1
When a musician studies
learn singing in the Bible, he or she will learn that vocal music was without
doubt the most important component of ancient Hebrew music. Ancient sacred music was conceived as a
handmaiden of the "word of God".
Also, singing and playing are mentioned in both the Old and New Testaments.
The study of Psalms,
hymns and spiritual songs reveals a special responsibility for church music to
be theologically sound. As I have
studied sacred music in both the Old and New Testaments, it has become apparent
that it was a vehicle for the word of Christ.
As one makes application to church music in this century, it becomes apparent
that it may become a means of grace to the Christian.
