Salmos 92:3 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 92:3

Upon an instrument of ten strings
An harp of ten strings, as the Targum. The harp invented by Terpander had only seven strings {c}; according to Pliny F4; Simonides added the eighth, and Timotheus the ninth; but this of David was of ten strings:

and upon the psaltery; of which (See Gill on Psalms 33:2), "upon the harp with a solemn sound"; or "upon higgaon with the harp"; which "higgaon", Aben Ezra says, was either the tune of a song, or an instrument of music; all these instruments of music were typical of the spiritual joy and melody which the saints have in their hearts when they praise the Lord; hence mention is made of harps in particular in this spiritual sense, under the Gospel dispensation, ( Revelation 5:8 ) ( Revelation 14:2 Revelation 14:3 ) ( Revelation 15:2 Revelation 15:3 ) .

Salmos 92:3 In-Context

1 Bom é render graças ao Senhor, e cantar louvores ao teu nome, ó Altíssimo,
2 anunciar de manhã a tua benignidade, e � noite a tua fidelidade,
3 sobre um instrumento de dez cordas, e sobre o saltério, ao som solene da harpa.
4 Pois me alegraste, Senhor, pelos teus feitos; exultarei nas obras das tuas mãos.
5 Quão grandes são, ó Senhor, as tuas obras! quão profundos são os teus pensamentos!
