Ephraem the Syrian
In discussing 1 Samuel 3:11, the verse states, "Behold, I do My words with Israel; for everyone who hears these things shall make a noise in both his ears." The term "make a noise" is connected to the Syriac words "slo" and "sislo," indicating a reference to a cymbal. The Syriac term "Kimval" is identified as "sisio," stemming from the same root, which is reflected in both the Hebrew and Syriac texts.
