'A Compendium of Musical Instruments and Instrumental Terminology
in the Bible' draws on extensive historical research, comparative
linguistic analysis and musical study to offer the first
compilation of its kind. The volume examines the entire range of
musical instruments in the Bible - stringed, wind and percussion -
drawing on ancient and modern translations of the Bible and the
works of rabbinic teachers, Church Fathers and medieval,
renaissance and contemporary scholars. The book offers a historical
survey of Hebrew instrumental music - its origins and links with
neighbouring cultures, the role of instruments in the religious,
social, public and private life of ancient Israel, and the system
of musical education - and explores the understanding of Hebrew
musical instruments in post-biblical times. This comprehensive
volume will be invaluable to musicologists, archaeologists,
theologians, historians, philologists and Bible translators, as
well as general readers in the subject.
