He composed it in Leipzig for Trinity Sunday on a text by Christiana Mariana von Ziegler and first performed it on 27 May 1725, concluding his second year of cantata compositions in Leipzig. == History and words == Bach composed the cantata during his second year in Leipzig for Trinity.〔 The prescribed readings for the Sunday were from the Epistle to the Romans, reflecting "depth of wisdom" (), and from the Gospel of John, the meeting of Jesus and Nicodemus (). 〔 In his second year in Leipzig, Bach composed chorale cantatas between the first Sunday after Trinity Sunday and Palm Sunday, but for Easter returned to cantatas on more varied texts, possibly because he lost his librettist. Nine of his cantatas for the period between Easter and Pentecost are based on texts of Christiana Mariana von Ziegler, including this cantata.〔 He later inserted most of them, including this one, in his third annual cantata cycle.〔 Ziegler took the idea from the Gospel that Nicodemus came to speak with Jesus at night, possibly afraid to be seen with him, and deducted thoughts about the timidity of Christians in general.〔 She opened her text with a paraphrase from Jeremiah, describing the heart of man as "ドイツ語:trotzig und verzagt", the conflicting attributes rendered for example as "daring and shy"〔 or "contrary and despairing" (). Literally "trotzig" means "defiant", "verzagt" means "despondent".〔 The poetess continued with a paraphase of Nicodemus' words that nobody could act as Jesus if God was not with him. She used the eighth stanza of Paul Gerhardt's hymn "ドイツ語:Was alle Weisheit in der Welt" (1653) as a closing chorale,〔 sung to the same melody as "ドイツ語:Christ unser Herr zum Jordan kam".〔 Bach first performed the cantata on 27 May 1725. It was the conclusion of Bach's second year of cantata compositions in Leipzig.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Es ist ein trotzig und verzagt Ding, BWV 176」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
