Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 - 1750):
WIR HABEN EIN GESETZ
Chorus from the St. John Passion.
The handwriting is by Johann Nathanael Bammler, who was prefect in the Thomanerchor Leipzig and an assistant to Bach in the late 1740s.
The St. John Passion was composed in the beginning of 1724 and had its first performance on Good Friday the same year (April 7). The original score by Bach is now lost. In the late 1730s, Bach began writing a new fair copy of the score. But he broke off his writing in the middle of the 10th movement (the recitative "Derselbige Jünger"). It is known that a planned passion performance in 1739 was cancelled by the church authorities in Leipzig, because Bach had not in due time seeked their approval of the passion text. Possibly this incident explains why he did not complete the score at that time. In 1749, in connection with a new performance of the St. John Passion, the score was finally completed by Bammler. Bach then reviewed the score and corrected various mistakes.
Wir haben ein Gesetz, und nach dem Gesetz soll er sterben; denn er hat sich selbst zu Gottes Sohn gemacht.
We have with us a law, and by this same law he should perish; for he hath proclaimed himself the Son of God.
The autograph score by Bammler can be found here (Satz 21):
