  • Handel's Oratorios and the Culture of Sentiment By
    Virtue Rewarded: Handel’s Oratorios and the Culture of Sentiment by Jonathan Rhodes Lee A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Davitt Moroney, Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Emeritus John H. Roberts Professor George Haggerty, UC Riverside Professor Kevis Goodman Fall 2013 Virtue Rewarded: Handel’s Oratorios and the Culture of Sentiment Copyright 2013 by Jonathan Rhodes Lee ABSTRACT Virtue Rewarded: Handel’s Oratorios and the Culture of Sentiment by Jonathan Rhodes Lee Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Davitt Moroney, Chair Throughout the 1740s and early 1750s, Handel produced a dozen dramatic oratorios. These works and the people involved in their creation were part of a widespread culture of sentiment. This term encompasses the philosophers who praised an innate “moral sense,” the novelists who aimed to train morality by reducing audiences to tears, and the playwrights who sought (as Colley Cibber put it) to promote “the Interest and Honour of Virtue.” The oratorio, with its English libretti, moralizing lessons, and music that exerted profound effects on the sensibility of the British public, was the ideal vehicle for writers of sentimental persuasions. My dissertation explores how the pervasive sentimentalism in England, reaching first maturity right when Handel committed himself to the oratorio, influenced his last masterpieces as much as it did other artistic products of the mid- eighteenth century. When searching for relationships between music and sentimentalism, historians have logically started with literary influences, from direct transferences, such as operatic settings of Samuel Richardson’s Pamela, to indirect ones, such as the model that the Pamela character served for the Ninas, Cecchinas, and other garden girls of late eighteenth-century opera.

  • The Wife of Manoah, the Mother of Samson
    546 THE WIFE OF MANOAH, THE MOTHER OF SAMSON Magdel le Roux University of South Africa P O Box 392, UNISA 0003 E-mail: [email protected] (Received 21/04/2016; accepted 06/07/2016) ABSTRACT The last account of the judges is that of Samson (Judges 13–16). This account has all the elements of a blockbuster. All the indications are that Samson would be an extraordinary person. And yet, even though Samson may be regarded as some sort of hero, the story suggests that Samson was also the weakest or most ineffective of the judges. Tension is created through the juxtaposition of “ideal” and “non-ideal” bodies. An alternative ideology, as a hidden polemic, is concealed in the account. As in the case of Achsah (Judges 1:11–15) and Deborah (Judges 4–5), the nameless wife of Manoah (the mother of Samson) serves as an illustration of “countercultural rhetoric” as a hidden polemic. INTRODUCTION In the dominant cultural ideology of the Israelite tribes, ideal, whole bodies were those of male Israelite soldiers without any defects. This is the image that comes to mind when one first reads about the strong man, Samson, although in time one becomes more aware of his weaknesses than his strengths. These accounts (Judges 14–16) are full of violence and of Samson’s personal revenge, but they also describe his weakness for women. In the case of Samson, an ideal male body develops into an “unwhole body” in that an aesthetic element is added to the story: God favours Samson despite his disobedience (Chs 14–16).

  • Samson Gods Strong Man English
    Bible for Children presents SAMSON, GOD’S STRONG MAN Written by: Edward Hughes Illustrated by: Janie Forest; Alastair Paterson Adapted by: Lyn Doerksen Produced by: Bible for Children www.M1914.org ©2021 Bible for Children, Inc. License: You have the right to copy or print this story, as long as you do not sell it. Long ago, in the land of Israel, lived a man named Manoah. He and his wife had no children. One day the Angel of the LORD appeared to Mrs. Manoah. "You will have a very special baby," He said. She told her husband the wonderful news. Manoah prayed, "Oh my Lord . come to us again. Teach us what we shall do for the child." The Angel told Manoah the child must never have his hair cut, must never drink alcohol, and must never eat certain foods. God had chosen this child to be a judge. He would lead Israel. God's people certainly needed help. They left God out of their lives, and then were bullied by their enemies, the Philistines. But when they prayed, God heard. He sent this baby who would become the world's strongest man. "So the woman bore a son and called his name Samson: and the child grew, and the LORD blessed him. And the spirit of the LORD began to move upon him." Samson became very strong. One day he fought a young lion with his bare hands - and killed it! Later, Samson tasted honey from a swarm of bees which had nested in the lion's dead body.

Yet, this dissertation does not contend with these changes because Rasta readers do not distinguish between the vows of Samson, Samuel, Absolom, and the vow of Numbers 6. 467 Scholar Marc Zvi Brettler discounts that the Nazirite vow serves as a unifying theme for the Samson cycle. This chapter proves the centrality of the vow in Rastafari readings of Samson.

  • Romanticizing Samson's Mother
    Romanticizing Samson’s Mother Romanticizing Samson’s Mother David J. Zucker, Aurora, Colorado, USA Abstract Samson’s mother is nameless in the Hebrew Bible. Little is said about her as a person. Roughly two millennia ago, in three sources of Rewritten Bibles her character is fleshed out, she becomes much more of a real figure. This article addresses specific verses pertaining to her in Judges 13 showing how they were recast in three pieces of literature from the Late Second Temple period and beyond. The three works are Josephus’ Judean Antiquities; Biblical Antiquities (Pseudo-Philo – Liber Antiquitatum Biblicarum [L.A.B.]); and the homiletic discourse, Pseudo-Philo’s “On Samson.” Key Words: Biblical Antiquities (Pseudo-Philo – Liber Antiquitatum Biblicarum [L.A.B.]); Josephus’ Judean Antiquities; Judges 13; Ms. Manoah/Eluma; Pseudo-Philo’s “On Samson.” Although anonymized in the biblical book of Judges, Samson’s mother increasingly is a person of interest in a number of writings created in the Late Second Temple period and after, i.e. the centuries around the time of the turning of the millennium two thousand years ago, about 200 BCE-200 CE and beyond. She becomes romanticized and idealized; she becomes more prominent and empowered in these works. Referring to specific verses which address her in Judges 13, this article shows how in three later texts a new picture of this woman emerges. The three sources under consideration are: Flavius Josephus’ Judean Antiquities (also known as the Antiquities of the Jews); a Pseudepigraphic work titled Biblical Antiquities (Pseudo-Philo – Liber Antiquitatum Biblicarum [L.A.B.]) and a third source, the homiletic Pseudepigraphic work, Pseudo-Philo “On Samson.” All three of these texts come under the rubric, Rewritten Bible or Rewritten Scripture.

  • The Death of Samson,” OTE 33/1 (2020): 162-174
    162 Bar, “The Death of Samson,” OTE 33/1 (2020): 162-174 The Death of Samson SHAUL BAR (UNIVERSITY OF MEMPHIS, USA) ABSTRACT This article examines the story of Samson’s death. From the time that he was captured by the Philistines until his death, the Bible describes at length the events that led to his downfall. This includes three major parts. The first Philistine event was jubilation at the temple of their god Dagon, which consists of two short rhymes which appear in poetic form. This was followed by Samson’s plea for God’s help and the destruction of the Philistine’s temple. The last part mentions Samson’s burial. Examination of the Philistine’s rhymes reveals that they ascribe Samson’s downfall to their god, which adds a religious dimension to the story. Samson was the only person whose death wish was granted. His death wish is similar to other death wishes from the ancient world. The mention of his burial and its location links the end of the story to its beginning, which is the story of his birth.* KEYWORDS: Samson, Philistines, seranim, Dagon, Fable, En-hakkore A INTRODUCTION Samson was a unique judge, unlike any other mentioned in the Book of Judges. Thus, not surprisingly, even his death was described in exceptional detail. The last part of Samson’s life is narrated in chapter 16:23–31. This section can be divided into three parts: 1) Verses 23–27 that describe the Philistine’s jubilation at Samson’s fall; 2) Verses 28–30 Samson’s revenge and his death; 3) Verse 31 the burial of Samson with a ‘formula ending’.

  • Who Cut Samson's Hair?
    WHO CUT SAMSON’S HAIR? THE INTERPRETATION OF JUDGES 16:19A RECONSIDERED Cornelis Houtman1 1. Introduction Who cut Samson’s hair? Delilah or some man? Judges 16, the final chapter of the Samson cycle which narrates how Samson could be overpowered by the Philistines through Delilah, allows both interpretations. This does not mean, however, that both are equally plausible. As we shall see, the second interpretation is more fitting in the supposed circumstances. The relevant text for answering the question raised is found in Judg 16:19. In the Hebrew Bible it runs as follows: ותישׁנהו על־ברכיה ותקרא לאישׁ ותגלח את־שׁבע מחלפות ראשׁו By ‘literal’ translating, it can be rendered in the following way: And she (Delilah) made him (Samson) sleep upon her knees; and she called for2 the man and she cut3 the seven locks of his head.4 Or: and she had him cut the seven locks of his head.5 1 I am indebted to Rev. Jaap Faber, Kampen, the Netherlands, for correcting the English of this article at a number of points. ,means (cf. Judg 4:6, 16:18,25 and see, e.g., Exod 1:18, 7:11, 8:4 ל + קרא In this context 2 21), ‘to summon’, ‘to bring out’ (possibly by her personal handmaid [cf. Exod 2:5, Dan 13:15,17–19,36 (Vulgate)]). 3 For such a translation and translations which allow this interpretation, see, e.g., the African Die Bybel in Afrikaans (1936), the German Einheitsübersetzung der Heiligen Schrift (1980), the French La Sainte Bible (Nouvelle version Segond révisée [1989]), the Dutch De Nieuwe Bijbelvertaling (2004) and Naardense Bijbel (2004), the German Bibel in gerechter Sprache (2006).

  • Samson's Riddle Judges 14 by Don Falkos Copyright 2016 Donald Falkos Storytelling LLC
    Samson's Riddle Judges 14 by Don Falkos copyright 2016 Donald Falkos Storytelling LLC Samson expressed his desire to marry a particular Philistine woman. His parents were distressed, "Isn't there some nice Israelite woman you could marry?" But he was insistent. When Samson was on his way to make the wedding arrangements, he was attacked by a young lion. The Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon Samson, and he ripped the lion's jaws apart with his bare hands. Later, when he was on his way to the wedding, he found that a swarm of bees had made honey in the lion's carcass. He scooped out some of the honey with his hands and ate it. Thirty young Philistine men were recruited as companions for Samson during the week- long celebration leading up to the wedding. Samson said to these thirty young men, "Let me tell you a riddle. If you solve it, I'll give each of you a set of fine clothes. If not, each of you will have to give me a set of fine clothes." They agreed. So Samson said, "Out of the eater, something to eat; out of the strong, something sweet." The young men couldn't decipher the riddle, so they threatened Samson's bride; she nagged him until he told her what it meant; she informed the young men, who said to Samson, "What is sweeter than honey? What is stronger than a lion?" Samson replied, "If you hadn't plowed with my heifer, you wouldn't have solved my riddle!" The Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon Samson.
