Instrumental Music in Public Worship in the Old Testament (The Second Commandment In Covenanter, Puritan & Reformation Worship)

Explains why our Puritan and Reformed forefathers called the use of instrumental music in public worship "the badge of Popery" -- which they believed overturned the work of Christ and reintroduced the shadows of the Old Testament (which the light of Christ had abolished) back into public worship. Part 2 of 2 in this series is called Instrumental Music in Public Worship in the New Testament.
