It is used in the context of singing praises to God, highlighting the importance of music in worship and spiritual expression. The term can denote both vocal and instrumental music, emphasizing the role of music in conveying devotion and adoration.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, music played a vital role in religious and communal life. Songs and melodies were integral to worship, celebrations, and even in times of lament. The Levites, a tribe set apart for temple service, were often responsible for leading musical worship. Instruments such as the harp, lyre, and cymbals were commonly used in conjunction with singing to enhance the worship experience. Music was seen as a means to express the soul's deepest emotions and to connect with God on a spiritual level.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from an unused word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>perhaps choice products<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>best products (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> II. <font class="hebrew2">זִמְרָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> of uncertain meaning, perhaps <font size="+1"><b>choice products</b></font> (compare DHM above), of various fruits, etc. <font class="hebrew2">מִזִּמְרַת הארץ</font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/43-11.htm">Genesis 43:11</a>;
