Structure of psalms.
My main interest in bible language was the structure of psalm. I´ve made
one proposal to sing their text with a musical structure, the cantillation.
Basically, if you consider that symbols weren´t vocalized, they could be
seen as musical signs, and it depends on the pronounce of each singer and
the way of reading this musical text.
This pentagram must be read by the instructions of each line, we need to
complete their text , to fill their “absent” letters, to fill the “empty”
text. I thought that we have a wall, but some pieces where missed, or their
writer don´t need to repeat words.
I would explain my new reading with one example, the little psalm 123, (I
wrote in a catolic forum one article, with the same arxives. It´s easy to
read, and there you have the four images in one only post with a similar
explanation).
Here you have the arxive with all their pieces …., and the result of this
action:
We have two readings, the first, the ketiv, the original writing text, and
second, qére. In this pentagram, cantillation people used to sing this
music in a unusual way, from left to right. That is their third reading,
