Topical Encyclopedia
Definition and Context:
In the biblical context, "play" can refer to various forms of amusement, recreation, or entertainment. It is often associated with joy, celebration, and sometimes idolatry or sinful behavior, depending on the context. The Bible presents play both positively and negatively, highlighting its role in human life and its potential for misuse.

Positive Aspects of Play:
Play is seen as a natural and joyful expression of life, particularly in the context of children. Jesus Himself acknowledged the innocence and joy of children at play. InMatthew 11:16-17 , Jesus compares the generation to children sitting in the marketplaces, calling to others, "We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn." This passage illustrates the natural inclination of children to engage in playful activities and the expectation of a joyful response.

The Bible also recognizes the importance of rest and recreation.Ecclesiastes 3:4 states, "a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance," suggesting that play and joy have their rightful place in the rhythm of life. Play, in this sense, can be a form of celebration and a way to express gratitude for God's blessings.

Negative Aspects of Play:
Conversely, the Bible warns against forms of play that lead to idolatry or immorality. InExodus 32:6 , during the incident of the golden calf, the Israelites "sat down to eat and drink and got up to indulge in revelry." Here, "revelry" is associated with idolatrous worship and sinful behavior, indicating that play can become corrupt when it leads people away from God.

Similarly, in1 Corinthians 10:7 , Paul warns the Corinthians, "Do not be idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written: 'The people sat down to eat and to drink, and got up to revel in play.'" This admonition serves as a reminder that play should not become an occasion for sin or distraction from spiritual devotion.

Play in Worship and Celebration:
Play is also present in the context of worship and celebration. King David's dance before the Ark of the Covenant is a notable example. In2 Samuel 6:14 , "And David, wearing a linen ephod, danced with all his might before the LORD." David's exuberant dance was an expression of worship and joy in the presence of God, demonstrating that play can be a form of worship when directed towards the Lord.

Conclusion:
While the Bible acknowledges the joy and innocence associated with play, it also cautions against its potential misuse. Play should be enjoyed within the boundaries of righteousness and should ultimately glorify God.
