Some understand this Alamoth, to be the tune of a song; I take it otherwise (after the best Expositions) to be meant of an instrument, not a tune, the meaning being thus much, A Psalm committed by David to be sung, and to him that was chief of the sons of Corah, to be played upon the instrument called Alamoth; for 1 Chron. 15.10. it is expressly said, That Zachariah played with Psalteries upon Alamoth, and then they played first upon that instrument, and so then sung the Psalm or ditty.
