Ps. 92:1 It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to sing praises to your name, O Most High;
2 to declare your steadfast love in the morning,
and your faithfulness by night,
3 to the music of the lute and the harp,
to the melody of the lyre.
4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad by your work;
at the works of your hands I sing for joy.
I'm not sure I can read this Psalm and come to the conclusion that the instruments played here were a Levitical ceremony. Sure, the priests had instruments, but even a lay person could participate in the worship described here. Did the Jews prior to the Levitical priesthood not play instruments to give thanks to the Lord, sing praises to his name, declare his his steadfast love, and faithfulness?
