Three Names High on the Muster-Roll The Mustard Seed: a Sermon for the Sabbath-School Teacher Smith's Bible Dictionary Dulcimer(Heb. sumphoniah) a musical instrument, mentioned in (Daniel 3:5,15) probably the bagpipe. The same instrument is still in use amongst peasants in the northwest of Asia and in southern Europe, where it is known by the similar name sampogna or zampogna. ATS Bible Dictionary DulcimerDaniel 3:5,10, an instrument of music, which the rabbins describe as a sort of bagpipe, composed of two pipes connected with a leathern sack, and of a harsh, screaming sound. The modern dulcimer is an instrument of a triangular form, strung with about fifty wires, and struck with an iron key while lying on the table before the performer. See MUSIC. Easton's Bible Dictionary (Hebrews sumphoniah), a musical instrument mentioned in Dan. 3:5, 15, along with other instruments there named, as sounded before the golden image. It was not a Jewish instrument. In the margin of the Revised Version it is styled the "bag-pipe." Luther translated it "lute," and Grotius the "crooked trumpet." It is probable that it was introduced into Babylon by some Greek or Western-Asiatic musician. Some Rabbinical commentators render it by "organ," the well-known instrument composed of a series of pipes, others by "lyre." The most probable interpretation is that it was a bag-pipe similar to the zampagna of Southern Europe. Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary 1. (n.) An instrument, having stretched metallic wires which are beaten with two light hammers held in the hands of the performer.2. (n.) An ancient musical instrument in use among the Jews. Dan. iii. 5. It is supposed to be the same with the psaltery. Thesaurus Dulcimer (3 Occurrences)... Int. Standard Bible Encyclopedia. DULCIMER. dul'-si-mer. See MUSIC under Nebhel and Sumphonia.
