What is Aijeleth shahar?
AIJ'ELETH SHA'HAR
(hind of the dawn). These words occur in the title to Ps 22, and probably "indicate, not the subject-matter of the poem, but rather a time for the guidance of the presentor." "There was some poem or lyrical composition extant which bore the name of Aijeleth Shahar -- similar names have frequently been given to poems in the East -- and according to the well-known measure of that the chief musician was to sing or chant the psalm." -- Ayhe: Treasury of Bible knowledge.
