Yeah, I found it. And now I feel all qualmish and upset because I'm going to be performing in Messiah in a month, and I've loved the oratorio for years and that's the sort of thing you can't unsee.

I guess that some of it is predicated on the notion that interpreting passages in the Hebrew scriptures as prefiguring Jesus Christ is inherently anti-Semitic, which is a notion that I'm also uncomfortable with. Possibly this is because I am Catholic and of German descent so I am always afraid that I am secretly an anti-Semite. I don't think I actually am one, but. *flail* see, this is me being neurotic.
