Who this is
Alamoth is a musical term found in the record of temple worship and in the headings of the Psalms, most likely indicating a high pitch or treble voice, literally "maidens" or "young women" (1 Chronicles 15:20). It appears as the heading of Psalm 46, and probably describes how the psalm was meant to be sung or played rather than naming any person.
