1 CHRONICLES 15:21 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed–edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps on the Sheminith to excel.”
Mattithiah and others were to lead with lyres set to Sheminith — lyre ('kinnor') differed from harp in construction and tone. Sheminith was musical designation; some scholars connect to eight-stringed instrument or octave pitch. Chronicler's musicological detail suggests temple music theory knowledge.
