Testing music plugin
Doubt this will work at all without the Myriad music plugin for IE
The virtual singer is quite something. It reads the lyrics in Hebrew, but of course it sings woodenly.
Unfortunately it will not open a file on Google drive. So for the test I am trying a traditional non-cloud server.

Evidence of a literate culture?
In Deuteronomy 28 again, there is an obvious parallel structure made clearer if we just pick words that recur exactly twice and also omit some verses so the table is manageable. If I were composing a speech orally, I doubt I could manage 20 odd words in a sequential parallel like this. Hmmm, the sequence is not as unvaried as it seems. Perhaps verse 5, or verse 17, each only 3 words long, got displaced.
