For the apostle adds\r\nagain, “Teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, in psalms,\r\nand hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to\r\nGod.” And again, “Whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name\r\nof the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and His Father.” This is our\r\nthankful revelry. And even if you wish to sing and play to the harp\r\nor lyre, there is no blame. Thou shalt imitate the righteous Hebrew\r\nking in his thanksgiving to God. “Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous;\r\npraise is comely to the upright,”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_505\" id=\"FNanchor_505\">[505]</a> says the prophecy. “Confess to\r\nthe Lord on the harp; play to Him on a psaltery of ten strings. Sing to\r\nHim a new song.” And does not the ten-stringed psaltery indicate the\r\nWord Jesus, who is manifested by the element of the decad? And as it is\r\nbefitting, before partaking of food, that we should bless the Creator\r\nof all; so also in drinking it is suitable to praise Him on partaking\r\nof His creatures. For the psalm is a melodious and sober blessing. The\r\napostle calls the psalm “a spiritual song.”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_506\" id=\"FNanchor_506\">[506]</a></p>","headings":["THE WRITINGS OF CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA.","THE INSTRUCTOR.","BOOK II.","CHAPTER IV.
