This identification is also held today by some, mostly Catholic interpreters, who assume a sameness or alternation of names of one and the same person due to the similarity of the names, as it occurred more frequently with the Graecization of Jewish names (the assumption presumes a person with the seminitic name "Chalpai").''(Translated from German Wikipedia)''<ref name="WikiK"/> | ||

}}{{Libretti | Dear Jesus, as I behold thee, | ||
Alas! Lacerated, bloodless! | |||
And you, my ungrateful eyes, | |||
oppressed by the blind horror of death | |||
you see the divine light | |||
in the end, and you are not yet dark, | |||
and blind? | |||
Kill me, my anguish; | |||
It is only fair that this | |||
afflicted body should die | |||
which already cannot give any comfort to the soul. | |||
'''Aria''' | |||
My Jesus is dead: | |||
Who will comfort me? | |||
tell me, for pity's sake, | |||
you, stars, at least. | |||
I can no longer live, | |||
now that my sun is gone: | |||
Alas, when will I see again | |||
its beautiful solace. | |||
