However, the primary meaning and significance of the word relate to its musical function. The word appears four times in the Bible, suggesting its importance in ancient Jewish culture and liturgy. Its association with ritual contexts and the use of stringed instruments to accompany worship or communal celebrations is likely to be a key aspect of this term's significance.
