A Hebrew word occurring in the headings of several of the Psalms, Psalm 32 , Psalm 42 , Psalm 44 , Psalm 45 , Psalm 52 — Psalm 55 , Psalm 74 , Psalm 78 , Psalm 88 , Psalm 89 and Psalm 142 . The word signifies 'instruction,' and these Psalms convey instruction to the remnant, which they will understand. The same word in the plural (maschilim) signifies 'the wise, or the instructed ones.' See Daniel 11:33,35; Daniel 12:3,10 . In the N.T. Christians are exhorted to be "teaching and admonishing one another in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord." Colossians 3:16 .
