Music From God 2 - Days of
Majesty
-
The Bible Translated into
Music!
-
A great creation by the Center for Biblical
Hebrew
-
After a long period of research,
hard work and exciting discoveries, the Music from God project
has
completed a masterpiece: the Days of Majesty CD. Talented musicians have
brought to life
music that was encrypted into the Hebrew text of the Bible
nearly three thousand years ago -
music that has been waiting all this time
to be discovered.
-
-
If you happen to own the first
version you were aware of its
-
meditative power - this new
creastion emphasises the
-
melodic attributes hidden in the
Biblical verses as well
-
as its meditative
qualities.
-
-
Using knowledge buried in
antiquity, the Center for Biblical Hebrew have discovered how to
take the Hebrew
text of the Bible and translate it, letter by letter, into
musical notes. The results are astounding! You can actually hear the Bible play
itself.

Days of Majesty contains
special chapters from the book of Psalms that were sung each day of
the week by the Levites
in the Jerusalem Temple. It also includes verses from the "Song of
Moses" (Shirat HaYam) found in the Book of Exodus - a song that was sung by
Moses and the children of Israel after the miraculous
parting of the sea. As
you listen again and again to these songs, you will learn to identify
each Psalm by its own distinct melody. Your whole being will praise God in the most powerful
way known to man - through music. The vision of Music from God is
to translate the entire
Hebrew text of the Bible into music. Through its music, anyone can
experience the power of the Bible in its original
language.

- Letters, verses and
chapters from the original Hebrew text of the Bible were translated to
musical notes to create the music you hear on this CD. Several years
of research, hard work and collaboration between many talented people
culminated in this beautiful presentation. The CD includes 11 tracks
of music that were directly translated from the Hebrew
text:
- 1. Psalm 23
This is one of
the most universally beloved of all Psalms. Its haunting, spiritual
melody is beautifully expressed by acclaimed violinist J'anna
Jacoby.
- 2-4. Exodus 15:1-3, Exodus 15:4-6, Exodus 15:7-10
These three
tracks depict the music in the Hebrew text of the "Song of the Sea."
Moses and the children of Israel sang these words after they witnessed
God's miracle, and walked to freedom on dry land inside the Sea of
Reeds. The music is somber at times, as appropriate to the gravity of
the situation. Israel was saved, but at the cost of human lives. The
music is not happy, rejoicing over the deaths of the Egyptian
soldiers, rather, it is a muted song of praise to God who saved the
people of Israel from the hands of their pursuers. The music resembles
the powerful water, as it stood upright, and the depth of the sea that
covered the horses, the chariots and the army of the
Pharoah.
- The Seven "Days of Majesty"
- The
last seven selections are translated from the text of seven Psalms
which tradition says were the daily songs sung by the Levitical choir
in the holy Temple in Jerusalem. Each day, the Levite
choir stood
atop the platform located in the Court of Israel, facing the outer
altar, and sang a special song for that particular day.
- Sunday through
Friday: Six days of Praise for the Work of Creation
- 5. Psalm 24: Sunday, the first
day of the week, begins with "The earth is the LORD's, and the
fullness thereof." Sunday is the first day of creation; on this day
the LORD acquired heaven and earth for Himself, and established
sovereignty over His world.
- 6. Psalm 48: Monday, the second
day of the week, begins with "Great is the LORD, and highly to be
praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of His holiness." It
was on this day that the waters were divided, and a firmament was put
in place between the upper and lower waters (Gen.
1:67).
- 7. Psalm 82: Tuesday, the third
day of the week, the Levites sang beginning with the words "God stands
in the Divine assembly, in the midst of judges shall he judge." On
this day of creation the
dry land became visible, and on this land,
the judges stand to render their decisions.
- 8. Psalm 94: Wednesday, the
fourth day of the week, begins with "O Lord God, to whom vengeance
belongs; O God, to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth!" This was the
day when the sun, moon and stars were created. Later, men would
mistakenly worship these created things and forget the
Creator.
- 9. Psalm 81: Thursday, the fifth
day of the week, begins with "Sing aloud to God our strength: make a
joyful noise to the God of Jacob." The living creatures were created
on this day. To be alive and aware of the wonders of Creation is to be
filled with joy and song.
- 10. Psalm 93: Friday, the sixth
day of the week, the Levites sang "The LORD reigns, He is clothed in
majesty." Creation was crowned and completed on this day, the last of
the original six days of creation. Today man was created, and only he
can recognize God's true greatness. Of all the vastness of creation,
man alone has the capacity to understand the Creator's rulership, and
accept it upon himself to be the king's subject.
- 11. Psalm 92: For this holy day,
the Levites sang, "A psalm, a song for the Sabbath day." Israel's
sages taught this Psalm was a song for the future, rectified world
"the day which is complete Sabbath tranquility, for everlasting
life."
