Organ:
(Genesis 4:21; Job 21:12; 30:31; Psalm 150:4). The Hebrew word thus rendered probably denotes a pipe or perforated wind‐instrument. In Genesis 4:21, it appears to be a general term for all wind‐instruments. In Job 21:12 are enumerated three kinds of musical instruments which are possible under the general terms of the timbrel harp and organ. Some identify it with the pandean pipe or syrinx, an instrument of unquestionably ancient origin, and common in the East. SEE [MUSIC].
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
