--David put those in order who were appointed to be singers an musicians in the temple. To prophesy, in this place, means praising God with great earnestness and devout affections, under the influences of the Holy Spirit. In raising these affections, poetry and music wer employed. If the Spirit of God do not put life and fervour into ou devotions, they will, however ordered, be a lifeless, worthless form __________________________________________________________________
