s.c.?[edit]

What does "s.c." mean? Caeruleancentaur (talk) 00:18, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Any technical specifics?[edit]

How many strings? How was it tuned? When was it standardized? Radical man 7 (talk) 20:43, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

@Radical man 7:, you are exactly right: this is not an encyclopedia article, but a piece of cheap propaganda. There is no academic support for the concept that kinnor is anything but the ancient Hebrew word for the instrument widely used at the time in the region. It is as if we had on ENGLISH Wik. not just an article on modern violin, but one on "Geige" dealing only with German aspects, one with "vioară" dealing only with Romanian aspects, etc. Ridiculous.

Huh?[edit]

"Kinnor" means violin. "Nevel" is a harp. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.68.245.8 (talk) 21:24, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Major rewrite 3 June 2013[edit]

The article was in pretty bad shape, so I did a near-total rewrite today, based entirely on cites from reputable sources.

Here are a few of the sources used, in case I or others need to refer to them later: [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. MatthewVanitas (talk) 20:41, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
