Question: You define " psalteries" in The Bible Story by parenthetic expression as "bagpipes." I don't find this definition current among the dictionaries at my command. I would be gratefully pleased for the elucidation of this point. Answer: Dictionaries are not perfect! The English word "psaltery" comes from the Hebrew word nebel. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
