Subject: Where do angels sing in the Bible? |
Bible Note: Hi Tim, I got mail. I think I could have stated my position a little better. My post to Rafike Rich on 01-22-02, 9:52pm presents where I was coming from a little better. I was asking for someone to present a verse where it says the word "singing,..." instead of "saying,..." Your verses from Revelation are closest to what I had in mind. Revelation 5:9 and Rev 15:3 would have been exactly what I was asking for if by the use of your colon in the translated passages you hadn't left out the word "saying" that is in the Greek. What I'm asking for is a verse where people are "singing...(followed by the words of the song or Psalm)." And my point being that just because the word singing is not in the text does not eliminate the possibility that the words were said in song; in singing and praising. Thus, for instance, Luke 2:13 does not preclude or prohibit the angels from singing simply because the Greek text reads "saying... If you understand what I am saying please acknowledge it. As far as all of your references referring to humans;:) I have expressed elsewhere that the Rev 15:3 includes the seven angels of verse 1 and 6 as necessary participants if not the performing group.
