When Jesus sang Part One *Matthew 26:30 KJV* *And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.* No man ever spoke like Jesus did, so it is safe to say no man has ever sang like He did as well. Did the angels also listerned like the prisoners listerned to the singing of Paul and Silas? I know i would, what about you? Christ sang, and the disciples joined in. Most of Christ disciples were known to be fishermen, and fishermen were know for their hearty…
