Paul commanded NO instrumental Psalms!

The use of PSALMS by Paul are "smoking guns" to allow careless teachers to insist that we are COMMANDED to do Instrumental praise and we would be disobedient if we did NOT use "machines for doing hard work or producing the shock and awe of all paganism

Psallo is connected but Psallo has no musical content. It speaks of warfare (as do many of the psalms or praises) and secondly the MARK of pollution imposed on you if you dallied around the singy-clappy boys and rhetoricians in the agora or marketplace. It never MEANS more than pull a string with the fingers and suddenly let go: the plectrum or baton are EXCLUDED.

Furthermore, PSALMS identifies a book in the Bible of which only 57 are psalms or mizmors and only 7 identify instruments and these are "owned" by people or functions such as sending signals (never playing) on the sabbath.

THE MIZMOR AS PSALMS
Psalm 150 is the the smoking gun for instrumentalists.

Delitzsch notes that: the collective name Tephilloth is suitable to all Psalms. The essence of prayer is a direct and undiverted looking towards God, and the absorption of the mind in the thought of Him. Of this nature of prayer all Psalms partake; even the didactic and laudatory, though containing no supplicatory addres.

Didn't Paul say SPEAK "that which is written" with one MIND and one MOUTH to edify or teach and glorify God who wrote them

Psalm is the blanked Greek word for mizmor but only mizmors are psalms used by the Jews.
Only 57 are mizmors and come under the command to SPEAK Psalms one to another to Educate and gloryfy God.

Only 7 of the 57 have instruments named. These are all DEDICATED for the use of certain people or "on the Sabbath" when instruments were never played but signaled events. None of them COMMAND us to play instruments.

You will be happy to know that Psalm 150 is NOT a mizmor or psalm. Therefore, Paul did not command you to SPEAK Psalm 150.

Psalm 150 is a praise song. Paul did not command praise songs. 76 are PRAISE SONG. These were "making self vile" with lots of twanging bowstrings in front of the enemy who knew that if they lost they would be molested, robbed and raptured. Thus, the BOAST SONGS caused a lot of people to panic: remember Gideon.

H1984 hâlal haw-lal' A primitive root; to be clear (originally of sound, but usually of color);
to shine; hence to make a show; to boast; and thus to be (clamorously) foolish; to rave...
feign self mad (against), give in marriage

You don't DO that while teaching and PRAYING! That is where we get the Lucifer word: he/she/it was the singing and harp playing prostitute in the garden of Eden who wholly seduced Eve.

H1966 hêylêl hay-lale' From H1984 (in the sense of brightness); the morning star:--lucifer.

H2490 châlal khaw-lal' to wound, to dissolve; figuratively to profane (a person, place or thing), to break (one’s word), denominatively (from H2485) to play (the flute): gather the grape thereof, take inheritance, pipe, player on instruments, pollute, (cast as) profane (self), prostitute, slay (slain), sorrow, stain, wound.

As "Lucifer was cast as profane out of heaven" and the musical minstrels were "cast as profane" by Jesus.

Delitzsch, Psalms: The word "psalm", which is derived from the Greek word psalmos, is a translation of the Hebrew term mizmor, which is the title standing at the head of fifty-seven of the psalms. Thus it is evident that not every psalm has the superscription "psalm". But it is this word which has come to be the designation of the whole book.

Thus we see that although the one hundred and fifty units are called in the Scriptures the Book of Psalms, only fifty-seven of them bear the superscription psalm (mizmor) in the Hebrew Old Testament. The title which the Book of Psalms bears in Hebrew is Sepher Tehillim - the Book of Praises. It is this Hebrew word tehillim.... In Hellenistic Greek the corresponding word psalmoi' (from psa'llein = zimeer) is the more common; the Psalm collection is called bi'blos psalmoo'n (Luke 20:42; Acts 1:20) or psaltee'rion, the name of the instrument (psanteerîn in the Book of Daniel)

THE MESSAGE OF THE PSALTERY

Using the "plaltery" for the whole book of psalms proves that they did not se them as part of the worship in that period where the Sacrificial system ceased or fell int disrepute used by the singers, musicians and male prostitutes 'initiated" as they tried to do Jesus: He wouldn't bow. Why debate it when we know that God abandoned Israel to worship the starry host at Mount Sinai (Acts 7 etal)?

"The name of psaltery entered Christian literature in the 3rd century B.C. translation of the Old Testament called the Septuagint where, in the Psalms, nebel was translated psalterion. Thus, Nebuchadnezzar's idolatrous ensemble included the Aramic psantria. Notice, also, that the book of Psalms has also become known as the Psalter (or psalterium), from the hymns sung with this harp.

Nebel (h5035) neh'-bel; from 5034; a skin- bag for liquids (from collapsing when empty); hence a vase (as similar in shape when full); also a lyre (as having a body of like form): - bottle, pitcher, psaltery, vessel, viol

Same meaning as the Familiar Spirit (dry wineskin) of the witch of Endor and the booms and clangs in 1 cor 13.

Nabel (h5034) naw-bale'; to wilt; generally to fall away, fail, faint; figurative: to be foolish or morally wicked; to despise, disgrace: - disgrace, dishonour, lightly esteem, fade (away, - ing), fall (down, -ling, off), do foolishly, come to nought, surely, make vile, wither..

"Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of musick, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up. Da.3:7

Can you dare to be a daniel? Don't blame all of the Bible and church history as being legalistic, sectarian, patternist, hypocrites. You are free to "eat, drink and make merry" but you are not free to twist all Scripture and recorded history to steal the church houses bought by widows.
