Description

The shirah of the Leviyim in the Beit HaMikdash stands at the intersection of formal service and emotional expression. The debate over the significance of music without words opens discussion over the precise role of music in religious life and demonstrates how song itself can serve as a profound pillar of Avodat Hashem.
