Bible Question: Psalm 149:3,what kind of dancing is mentioned here? |
Bible Answer: PS 149:1 Praise the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the saints. PS 149:2 Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the people of Zion be glad in their King. PS 149:3 Let them praise his name with dancing and make music to him with tambourine and harp. PS 149:4 For the LORD takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with salvation. PS 149:5 Let the saints rejoice in this honor and sing for joy on their beds. (NIV) Yes, this is dancing for joy! This was stated in the NIV Bible Commentary: The resultant expression on the part of the godly can only be joy. They are portrayed as "dancing." The people of God regularly celebrated the Lord's victory and blessing in dance (cf. Ex 15:20; Jdg 11:34). Also at home "on their beds," they rejoice in the glory bestowed on them by the Lord. |
