The Music of the Bible Revealed � Psalms 137 - Christian Music Videos

Suzanne Haïk-Vantoura, LA MUSIQUE DE LA BIBLE R�V�L�E - VOLUME 2 (Alienor 1050 CD), Track 12. -- This slideshow of Psalms 137 includes the consonantal Hebrew Masoretic Text and modified versions of the transliteration and translation provided by Lev Software. The arrangement for the modern Celtic harp is of course SHV's, but the ancient melodic line, modality and choral alternation were inferred by her from the Masoretic Text (Letteris Edition). -- This Psalm is so slow, simple and intense that it may be completely beyond the grasp of many in our adrenalin-addicted generation. But here, as much as anywhere in Hebrew Scripture, lies the real *heart* of "biblical Zionism". May the Psalm's ancient melody help those who misread the Psalm's last two verses as *human cruelty* learn what *Divine justice* sometimes requires, and the true attitudes and emotions that lie behind it. -- For more information, please see www.rakkav.com/kdhinc, www.shofargroup.org. www.savae.org, and (in French) www.estherlamandier.org.
