Harp       (Heb. kinnor), the national instrument of the Hebrews. It was       invented by Jubal (Gen. 4:21). Some think the word _kinnor_       denotes the whole class of stringed instruments. It was used as       an accompaniment to songs of cheerfulness as well as of praise       to God (Gen. 31:27; 1 Sam. 16:23; 2 Chr. 20:28; Ps. 33:2;       137:2).                In Solomon's time harps were made of almug-trees (1 Kings       10:11, 12). In 1 Chr. 15:21 mention is made of "harps on the       Sheminith;" Revised Version, "harps set to the Sheminith;"       better perhaps "harps of eight strings." The soothing effect of       the music of the harp is referred to 1 Sam. 16:16, 23; 18:10;       19:9. The church in heaven is represented as celebrating the       triumphs of the Redeemer "harping with their harps" (Rev. 14:2).
