Strong's Lexicon tselul or tselil: Sound, tone, or ringing Original Word: צְלוּל Word Origin: Derived from the root צָלַל (tsalal), which means "to ring" or "to tinkle." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent that captures the essence of a clear sound is "ψαλμός" (psalmos - Strong's Greek 5568), which refers to a song sung to the accompaniment of a stringed instrument, often used in the context of worship. Usage: The Hebrew words "tselul" and "tselil" refer to a clear, ringing sound or tone. They are often used to describe the sound of musical instruments or the clarity of a voice. The terms convey a sense of purity and resonance, often associated with worship or celebration. 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.
