Stapert's expert treatment of the attitudes of the early church toward psalms and hymns on the one hand, and pagan music on the other, is ideal for scholars of early Christianity, church musicians, and all Christians seeking an ancient yet relevant perspective on music in their worship and lives today.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chr-General","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":53153046692064,"sku":"Books:9780802832191n","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/5911\/6768\/products\/newsongoldworld.jpg?v=1656540842","url":"https:\/\/theswordandshovel.com\/products\/new-song-for-an-old-world-stapert-paperback-copy","provider":"Sword \u0026 Shovel (403)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
