It is similar to a harp or lyre and was used in various religious and ceremonial contexts in ancient Israel. The psaltery is noted for its role in the musical accompaniment of psalms and hymns, contributing to the rich tradition of music in biblical worship.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b><br><br>The psaltery is frequently mentioned in the Old Testament, particularly in the context of temple worship and royal ceremonies. In <a href="/2_samuel/6-5.htm">2 Samuel 6:5</a> , it is recorded, "David and all the house of Israel were celebrating before the LORD with all kinds of wood instruments, harps, lyres, tambourines, sistrums, and cymbals." Here, the psaltery is implied as part of the ensemble of instruments used in the joyous procession of the Ark of the Covenant.<br><br>In <a href="/1_chronicles/15-16.htm">1 Chronicles 15:16</a> , King David commands the Levites to appoint musicians for the transportation of the Ark: "David also told the leaders of the Levites to appoint their brothers as singers to lift up their voices with joy, accompanied by musical instruments&#8212;harps, lyres, and cymbals." The psaltery, as a type of lyre, would have been included in this array of instruments.<br><br>The Book of Psalms, a central text for understanding the use of musical instruments in worship, frequently mentions the psaltery. <a href="/psalms/33-2.htm">Psalm 33:2</a> exhorts, "Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to Him with ten strings." While the specific term "psaltery" is not used here, the reference to a ten-stringed instrument aligns with descriptions of the psaltery.<br><br><b>Historical and Cultural Context:</b><br><br>The psaltery, as an ancient instrument, was likely constructed from wood and strung with gut or metal strings. It was played by plucking or strumming, producing a melodious sound suitable for both solemn and celebratory occasions. The design and construction of the psaltery varied over time and across regions, but it consistently served as a key instrument in the musical life of Israel.<br><br>In the context of temple worship, the psaltery was used by the Levites, who were appointed as musicians and singers. Their role was to lead the congregation in worship, using instruments like the psaltery to enhance the spiritual experience and facilitate communal praise.<br><br><b>Theological Significance:</b><br><br>The use of the psaltery in biblical worship underscores the importance of music in expressing devotion and reverence to God. It symbolizes the harmony and beauty of creation, reflecting the order and majesty of the divine. The psaltery, along with other instruments, was integral to the liturgical practices of ancient Israel, serving as a means to glorify God and unite the community in worship.<br><br>The psaltery's presence in the biblical narrative highlights the value placed on artistic expression in the service of God. It serves as a reminder of the role of music in spiritual life, encouraging believers to use their talents and resources to honor the Creator.<a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>A musical instrument, supposed to have been a kind of lyre, or a harp with twelve strings.
