Lesson 199: Elements of Worship II: Singing

Full Lesson HERE

INTRODUCTION. The first reference to music in the Bible is in connection with a descendant of Cain. Jubal is called the "father" of those who handle or play the harp and the organ (KJV). Organ is translated pipe in the ASV, and flute in the NKJV (Gen. 4:21 ). In the Old Testament both singing and instrumental music accompanied the worship of God and other activities such as work, war, victories, banquets, feasts, etc. Music as one of the acts of worship in the New Testament is limited to singing.
