Psalm 150:4
Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
Praise him with the timbrel and dance,.... Or "pipe" {u};
See Gill on "Ps 149:3";
Praise him with stringed instruments; or divers "kinds" {w} of instruments not named, as R. Saadiah Gaon; and which, as Aben Ezra says, had all one sound or note; what they were is not known, as also many of them that are particularly mentioned;
and organs; which have their name from the loveliness of their sound; these are of ancient original and use, Genesis 4:21; but were not of the same kind with those now in use, which are of much later invention.

{w} Mynmb "varia symphonia", Cocceius.
