behold (by mistake for 7789), sing(-er, -ing man, - ing woman)
Dictionary of Biblical Words:
This is first mentioned in Scripture in connection with redemption. None but those who are redeemed can truly sing. It is characteristic of the joy of heaven, and the praises of God’s people on earth. The early Christian Church were wonderful singers: the joy of resurrection, of a new life was so fresh in their hearts that even now we can read their songs in the catacombs of Rome. Singing, as at present known, really carne in with Christianity. It was the joy of the early Christians that so amazed the heathens around them. This new burst of song amazed alike the Greek philosopher and the savage barbarian.
