No it doesn't. It covers trumpets (horns, the ancient Hebrews didn't have keyed trumpets)

How do you know??? Of course that's crazy...So why doesn't your religion have keyless trumpets blasting away in your churches???

, psaltery (plucked string instrument)

Well, you're 100% wrong on that one...

nebel nêbel
neh'-bel, nay'-bel
From H5034; a skin bag for liquids (from collapsing when empty); hence, a vase (as similar in shape when full); also a lyre (as having a body of like form): - bottle, pitcher, psaltery, vessel, viol.

That includes bagpipes and some of these

Got a lot of jug players in your churches???

harps, timbrels (tambourines), stringed instruments (ancient Hebrews only had plucked string instruments

That's stupid...A plucked instrument??? HaHa...It's a 'twanging' instrument, whether it's plucked or strummed... By your definition, here's a picture of a legitimate Christian band...

, so this is basically a repetition of the "psaltery and harp")

No it isn't...You were wrong on the psaltry...

, organs (a flute/syrinx/panpipe, ancient Hebrews didn't have keyboard organs or anything of the like), and cymbals.

A good Protestant would leave the interpretation of Scripture to those numpties in Rome and stick with harps, shofars, panpipes, cymbals and tambourines, just to be safe. You can leave your pianos, harmoniums, pipe organs, and bowed instruments at home. Ditto on the keyed-instruments.

Could be...But a good Christian will believe the bible knowing that the bible keeps up with technology...

Here's some wisdom that you and yours will benefit from...God doesn't care if you bang two spoons or sticks together...If it is to glorily God, he is pleased...

How do I know? Because a cursory investigation into the progression of musical instruments reveals that chromatic trumpets didn't exist anywhere at the time that the Psalms were recorded.

"Well, you're 100% wrong on that one..."

I could argue over this, but instead I will just suggest that you go to google images (or your search engine of choice) and search "psaltery," and see what comes up.

"That's stupid...A plucked instrument??? HaHa...It's a 'twanging' instrument, whether it's plucked or strummed... "

Plucked, as opposed to bowed. Twang the thing if you wish, by all means, but I think you'll find "plucked string instrument" is the more generally accepted term over "twanging instrument."

"No it isn't...You were wrong on the psaltry..."

Again, refer to google images.

"Here's some wisdom that you and yours will benefit from...God doesn't care if you bang two spoons or sticks together...If it is to glorily God, he is pleased..."

So we're cool on the Eucharistic Adoration? Awesome.
