520 |a Handel (1685–1759) relied upon a number of librettists for his Israelite oratorios (composed for the most part during the period 1732–52). In addition to anonymous writers (responsible for Joshua, Solomon, and Susanna), Handel had five known librettists: Samuel Humphreys (Esther, Deborah, Athalia); Charles Jennens (Saul, Belshazzar); Newburgh Hamilton (Samson); James Miller (Joseph and his Brethren); and Thomas Morell (Judas Macchabaeus, Alexander Balus, Jephtha).
