Isaiah 23:16

Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered.

Ver. 16. Take an harp.] In bidding her do so, he foretelleth that she shall do so - sc., ad ingenium suum redire, fall to her former practices.

Make sweet melody, &c.] The Tyrians were much addicted to music. Ezekiel 26:13 ; Eze 28:13
