The Word "Sllh.'

Thetranslator OF the Bible have left the
Hebrew word "Selah," which occurs 80 Of
ten in the Psalms, as they found il and. Of
course, the English reader often asks his
minister or some learned friend, what it
means And the minister or learned friend,
has most often been obliged TO confess ig-a
,norance, because it is matter in regard 70
which the mos, learned have by no means
been Of one mind. The Targums and most
of the Jewish commentators give the word
meaning eterndUy forerer. Rabbi kimchi
regards il as a sign to elevate the voice
The authors ofthe Septaugint translation
appear tohave regarded is musical sign,
equivalent perhaps to the word repeat
According to Luther and others, it means
siencep Geuesius explains it to mean: 'Let
the instruments play. and the singers stop.
Wochcm regards it as equivalent to sur

the word occurs, recognizes in every case,

There are calls for aid and prayer,

still earnest addresses to God that he would
