Lo, thou art unto them as a very lovely song - literally, a 'song of loves:' a lover's song. They praise thy eloquence, but care not for the subject of it as a real and personal thing; just as many do in the modern Church (Jerome).
One that hath a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument - Hebrew singers accompanied the "voice" with the harp.
