Actually, you'll all notice that the tracks are identical to those on Legend/Titanus: what we have here is a LEGIT release, possibly better mastered. The extra Rozsa cues are not present.
As for the Idelsohn Hebrew cues, it would seem from this that Rozsa recorded many such cues, non-specifically, for inclusion at points where they'd be appropriate later. Some made it, some didn't. This adds to my contention that Rozsa had a lot of this score (I mean including his own stuff) already up his Old Testament sleeve, waiting for an appropriate (?) vessel. As regards the Hebrew stuff, he probably already had this material collected from QV, BH, and KoKs.
This explains why only 'The Dam' and 'A Children's Game' made it to the old album: only these two did he originally arrange, as he did with 'Messengers'. Don't be surprised if there's no choral overlay to 'The Dam'.
Cues still missing ... The Elamite cavalry charge and build-up to the battle, the End Title to Act I, and the bit where Sodom is first mentioned by Ildeth, in her litter, '....nothing is forbidden' or words to that effect, which is very similar to a passage in the 'Jail' (goal) cue. Also the Prologue of course, and I think a few bars of Ashtaroth twanging some ancient finger-harp: I don't know the film that well, since it's so ghastly, but there may well be more. The shorter 'Dance' on the Citadel LP is also missing, based on the Twins' dance motif. Still it's on legit CD and there are those extra choruses, albeit probably verbatim from source.
