American Tract Society Bible Dictionary [1]

A musical instrument consisting of two broad plates of brass, of a convex form, which being struck together, produce a shrill, piercing sound. From Psalm 150:5 , it would appear that both hand-cymbals and finger-cymbals, or castagnets, were used. They were used in the temple, and upon occasions of public rejoicings, 1 Chronicles 13.8; 16.5 , as they are by the Armenians at the present day. In 1 Corinthians 13:1 , the apostle deduces a comparison from sounding brass and "tinkling" cymbals; perhaps the latter words had been better rendered clanging or clattering cymbals, since such is the nature of the instrument. See Music .

CYMBAL, n. L., Gr.

1. A musical instrument used by the ancients, hollow and made of brass, somewhat like a kettle-drum but the precise form is not ascertained.

2. A mean instrument used by gypsies and vagrants, made of a steel wire, in a triangular form, on which are passed fie rings, which are touched and shifter along the triangle with an iron rod held in the left hand, while it is supported in the right by a ring, to give it free motion.

(Strong'S #2950 — Noun Neuter — kumbalon — koom'-bal-on )

"a cymbal," was so called from its shape (akin to kumbos, "a hollow basin," kumbe, "a cup"), and was made of bronze, two being struck together, 1 Corinthians 13:1 .

Wilson's Dictionary of Bible Types [6]

Psalm 150:5 (c) This indicates that our praise and worship should not be of a subdued character but should be loudly proclaimed so that all may hear.

1 Corinthians 13:1 (a) We are being warned by the Lord that though we may make a loud noise in the service of the King, and be heard for our much speaking, it will be in GOD's sight only as the noise of the metal if it is not promoted and produced by a heart filled with love for GOD.
