Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, music played a significant role in both religious and social contexts. Instruments such as the lyre, harp, and cymbals were commonly used in worship and celebrations. The clarity and resonance of sound were highly valued, as they were believed to enhance the worship experience and bring glory to God. The use of music in worship is deeply rooted in Jewish tradition, with the Psalms often serving as a hymnbook for the Israelites.
