first usage of music in the bible

[edit]

When the children of Israel leave the splitting of the sea they sing, dance and play music. So stating David as a first is simply wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.161.6.200 (talk) 12:29, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The first use seems to refer to "music of religious ritual," such as organized hymnology and services. --Wikiwatcher1 (talk) 17:27, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Article name

[edit]

The word "biblical" does not require a capital "b" ... even the lead recognises that. The article should therefore be renamed but I do not have the tools to do it. Abtract (talk) 09:14, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The dictionary uses it both ways. When it refers specifically to the Bible or Biblical times, it's usually capitalized. But when used in a more general sense, ie. "of biblical proportians," it's not. --Wikiwatcher1 (talk) 16:49, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Move discussion in progress

[edit]

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:List of burial places of Biblical figures which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RM bot 02:46, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hallelujah chorus

[edit]

The Hallelujah chorus mentioned here is probably not Handel's, where the link points. Should it be unlinked or will an article on this one be written, if yes which name? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:57, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Names of songs

[edit]

Should mention that some names of songs are probably preserved in the superscriptions to individual Psalms... AnonMoos (talk) 08:41, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
