Dear friends:

         Structure of cantillation of psalm 23.

         http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/5569/psalm23structureofcanti.jpg

         I have sent an email about "ngd", in psalm 23, to Mr. Randall, and
I think this note could been shared here, with the link below.

         Cantillation as exercise with psalms could be seen as a rebuilding
of their original epigraphy . This exercise for experts  in  this music,  was
easy;  the economy of language. You do not need to repeat words in a written
text, or notes in a pentagram, as a result,  words were eluded.

           I think about authors of psalms, it´s possible they  were women,
and might be one resort, to explain the law, and protect their children
against the ignominy.


           I give you mi composition of cantillation of Psalm 23. You need
read three times, qere, ketib and reverse of legendum of qere.

           In general we could understand [ngd], in composition, on their
place, the context, but in psalms, cause of third reading, the reverse of
this word, [dgn], might have another meaning.


           I have try not to repeat “ngd”, in composition of psalm 23, but
I´m not sure about their movement.


           regards,

           Antonio García Hurtado.
