Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Whole Bible
back to:
1 Chronicles
Book: 1 Chronicles
Chapter: 25
Overview:
The singers and musicians.
-
David Put those in order who were appointed to be singers and
musicians in the
Temple. To prophesy, in this place, means
praising
God with great earnestness and devout affections, under
the influences of the Holy
Spirit. In raising these affections,
Poetry and
Music were employed. If the
Spirit of
God do not
Put
Life and fervour into our devotions, they will, however ordered,
be a lifeless, worthless form.
