Psalms 150:4

John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible · John Gill (1697–1771) · Public Domain

Praise him with the timbrel and dance,.... Or "pipe" ;See Gill on "Ps 149:3";praise him with stringed instruments; or divers "kinds" of instruments not named, as R. Saadiah Gaon; and which, as Aben Ezra says, had all one sound or note; what they were is not known, as also many of them that are particularly mentioned;and organs; which have their name from the loveliness of their sound; these are of ancient original and use, Ge 4:21; but were not of the same kind with those now in use, which are of much later invention.

lwxmw "et tibia", Tigurine version, Junius & Tremellius, Piscator, Gejerus.
