DIRECT COMMANDS WHICH NO ONE CORRUPTING THE WORD--SELLING AT RETAIL--WILL EVER GRASP.
But, none of the Bible is metrical in a tuneful sense: the Jews added notations which helped in rhymic prose. Cantillation agrees with the SPEAK used by Paul which is defined and used in the literature as the opposite of poetry or music. There is no musical content in the word PSALLO and the Disciples tried to inject the instrument into it for the first time in history in 1878 after they had already sowed massive discord.
Rom. 15:1 We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak,and not to please ourselves.
The INFIRM would include the old and probably half of any congregation where music creates the mental excitement which even now keeps Prozac in business. Plato and others were literate and considerate and warned not to intrude music when you are wanting to impart truth. They knew that the nature of people responded with anxiety when the music is played whereas others would not be troubled. But, why would you introduce music when you should know that you are hurting a large part of the group?

Verg. A. 6.98 Thus from her shrine Cumaea's prophetess
Chanted the dark decrees; the dreadful sound
Reverberated through the bellowing cave,
Commingling truth with ecstasies obscure.
Apollon, as she raged, flung loosened rein,
And thrust beneath her heart a quickening spur.
When first her madness ceased, and her wild lips
Were still at last, the hero thus began :
...On son and sire,
0 gracious one, have pity,—for thy rule
Is over all; no vain authority
Hadst thou from Trivia o'er th' Avernian groves.
If Orpheus could call back his loved one's shade,
Emboldened by the lyre's melodious string :
If Pollux by the interchange of death
Redeemed his twin, and oft repassed the way :
If Theseus—but why name him? why recall
Alcides' task? I, too, am sprung from Jove.
Of Thracia: And ever on the watch from their place of prospect with its fair haven, often from many had they taken away their sweet return, consuming them with the waste desire; and suddenly to the heroes, too, they sent forth from their lips a lily-like voice (opa leirion). And they were already about to cast from the ship the hawesers to the shore, had not Thracian Orpheus, son of Oeagrus, stringing in his hands his Bistonian lyre (phorminx), rung forth the hasty snatch of a rippling melody so that their ears might be filled with the sound of his twanging; and the lyre (phorminx) overcame the maidens' voice. And the west wind and the sounding wave rushing astern bore the ship on; and the Sirens kept uttering their ceaseless song. (Translation: Seaton 1980)
They spoke a barbarian language, that is, one unintelligible to the Greeks, we must despair of being able to comprehend these accounts of the ancient Thracian minstrels, and of assigning them a place in the history of Grecian civilisation; since it is [p. 1181] manifest that at this early period, when there was scarcely any intercourse between different nations, or knowledge of foreign tongues,
If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this mans religion is vain. James 1:26
Pure religion [Amiantos Threskeia] and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. Ja.1:27
So REGULAR religion is:
Threskeia (g2356) thrace-ki'-ah; from a der. of 2357; ceremonial observance: - religion, worshipping. religious worship, cult, ritual, Apollônos at Delphi
Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, Col.2:18
"Voluntary" (g2309) means determined, delightful, pleasurable.

1 Corinthians 14.26 What is it then, brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has another language, has an interpretation. Let all things be done to build each other up.

Ephesians 4.[11] He gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds and teachers; [12] for the perfecting of the saints, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of Christ; [13] until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full grown man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ
