Levites' Song

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The Levites' Song was a song sung by the Jewish descendents of Levi in the time of the Jewish Temple. A different song was sung every day of the week. Also, on certain times of the year, a different song was sung instead of the normal one for that day of the week. All songs come from Psalms. Entire chapters were sung.
