Strong's Lexicon shorer: Singer, minstrel Original Word: שֹׁרֶר Word Origin: Derived from the root שׁוֹר (shor), meaning "to sing" or "to be a singer." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "shorer," the concept of singers and musicians in worship can be related to Greek terms such as ψάλτης (psaltēs, Strong's G5568), meaning "psalmist" or "singer." Usage: The term "shorer" refers to a singer or minstrel, often associated with those who perform music or sing in a religious or ceremonial context. In the Hebrew Bible, singers played a significant role in worship and temple services, contributing to the spiritual and communal life of Israel. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, music was an integral part of worship and daily life. The Levites, a tribe set apart for religious duties, included musicians and singers who served in the temple. These singers, or "shorerim," were responsible for leading the congregation in worship, often accompanied by instruments. Music was seen as a means to glorify God, express devotion, and convey theological truths. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originthe same as shor, q.v.
