‏ Colossians 3:16-17

3:16 ^a Psalms and hymns and spiritual songs are songs of praise and worship (see 1 Cor 14:26 ^b; Eph 5:19 ^c). The prototype is the book of Psalms.
3:17 ^d as a representative of the Lord Jesus (literally in the name of the Lord Jesus): In the Bible, a person’s name represents that person. To do something in the name of the Lord Jesus is therefore to act in a way that is in harmony with his identity and under his authority.
