Minstrel The Hebrew word in 2Ki 3:15 properly signifies a player upon a stringed instruments like the harp or kinnor [HARP], whatever its precise character may have been, on which David played before Saul, 1Sa 16:16; 18:10; 19:9 and which the harlots of the great cities used to carry with them as they walked, to attract notice. Isa 23:16 The "minstrels" in Mt 9:23 were the flute-players who were employed as professional mourners, to whom frequent allusion is made. 2Ch 35:25; Ec 12:5; Jer 9:17-20 |
