Bible Note: Hi Nolan, If you think that you can get away from singing, and saying, by using the word "proclaiming" let me remind you of Psalm 96. "Sing to the Lord a new song; Sing to the Lord, all the earth. Sing to the Lord, bless His name; Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day." Here we have sing and proclaim in the same sentence. As far as Revelation 15 is concerned, I believe that the angels and "those who had come off victorious from the beast" were together in the sanctuary in heaven. The words "in heaven" are in verses 1 and 5 and the harps, angels, and those others are all there inbetween. And then the angels come out of the sanctuary or temple of the tabernacle of testimony in heaven. So the main characters are the angels rather than "those" others. If that is the case then I could very logically infer that the harp holders/ players would have accompanied the singing angels. I don't believe that that is a "myth"interpretation of scripture.:) Also, Searcher, I don't believe that my interpretation would be a (mis)interpetion od Scripture. :) Luke 2:10 speaks of good news of a great joy, the angel says. Psalm 96:2 says, "Sing to the Lord, bless His name; Proclaim good tidings..." Psalm 95:1,2 says, "O come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; Let us shout joyfully to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving; [Or, a song of thanksgiving]; Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms. [Or,songs (with instrumental accompaniment)]. When I am in the sanctuary I don't want to see a multitude of angels or even seven angels acting like they can't sing. I want to hear a joyful noise at the very least, and shouts of joy to the rock of our salvation, singing for joy to the Lord, for He is a great King. Later, Ray |
