Strong's Lexicon shir: Song, Sing Original Word: שַׁיר Word Origin: From a root word meaning "to sing" Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G5603 (ōdē): A song, ode - G5215 (hymnos): A hymn, song of praise Usage: The Hebrew word "shir" primarily refers to a song or the act of singing. It is used in the Bible to denote a variety of songs, including songs of praise, worship, lament, and celebration. As a verb, it describes the action of singing, often in a communal or worshipful context. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, music and singing were integral parts of religious and communal life. Songs were used in worship at the Temple, during festivals, and in daily life. The Psalms, many of which are attributed to King David, are a prime example of the use of "shir" in the Hebrew Bible. Singing was a means of expressing emotion, recounting history, and teaching theology.
