Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.

Praise him with the timbrel and dance - (Psalms 149:3.) The timbrel accompanied the dance (Exodus 15:20; Psalms 68:25).

Organs - [ `uwgaab (H5748), from `aagab (H5689), to blow], rather, 'pipes.' Nowhere else is the pipe mentioned in the public temple service. Here it is introduced only because the feast of dedicating the walls was one of popular rejoicing. The instruments used in the temple service being all given here, it is plain that the interpretation whereby many find new instruments in several of the titles is erroneous.
