Easter scripture

If you haven't been to a performance (over two hours) of George F. Handel's oratorio (1741), "The Messiah," you may not be aware that the words to all of it are scripture taken from the King James version of the Bible (translation finished in 1611 under the reign of King James in England).

It traces the story of the Messiah from prophecy to Christ's life/death/resurrection, and thence to our destiny with Him in eternity.  Here are some of the most famous quotes from "Messiah":

"For the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together!"

"Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and she shall call his name Emmanuel: God with us!"

"We have turned, everyone, to his own way.  The Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all."

"Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, and hath redeemed us to God!"

"The trumpet shall sound and the dead shall be raised incorruptible!  And we shall be changed!"
