What are the tabrets and pipes of Ezekiel 28?
Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. (Ezekiel 28:13-14)Some commentators say the tabrets and pipes are "the sockets and grooves used as the settings for the precious stones", but most every other place these words are used in the Bible they are referring to musical instruments. Tabret Genesis 31:27 1 Samuel 10:5 1 Samuel 18:6 Job 17:6 Isaiah 5:12 Isaiah 24:8 Isaiah 30:32 Jeremiah 31:4 Ezekiel 28:13 Pipes 1 Samuel 10:5 1 Kings 1:40 Isaiah 5:12 Isaiah 30:29 Jeremiah 48:36 Ezekiel 28:13 Matthew 11:17 Luke 7:32 1 Corinthians 14:7 Revelation 18:22 The exception with the pipes would be two verses in Zechariah which talk about the lamp stand.
