    What does Selah mean?

    Hello Young md,

    I just looked this word up and it seems that the meaning is somewhat obscure and is interpreted in different ways depending on what one thinks the base word it is derived from. Some of these bases words have meaning such as:

    to praise

    to lift up praise

    to stop and listen

    the Lord has spoken

    to rest and consider

    a musical instruction

    So, from these we may think of Selah as to pause, either music or singing to left up praise to God or to stop and listen prayerfully, or to pause and reflect or think upon what is said int he music/song, or to take time momentarily to meditate or contemplate.

    Selah can mean rests or silence between the end of songs or poems as is in Psalms, hopefully this helps Youngmd. God bless!
