Cells Of A Song


In Ireland, Wales and Scotland, bardic colleges would use a technique for incubating tehilim (psalms) called the cell of a song. A bard-psalmist would be laid on a wattle bed in a closed, windowless cell ...after 24 hours, the bard would emerge from the darkness and write of that revealed there. Bringing light from darkness and cells of the Temple.
