If I am chirping/chattering in the Tongues of the Men and of the Angels, but I am not holding an agape-love, I have become a bronze, he who is ringing, or a cymbal which is raising orgiastic war-cries.
ἀλαλάζω - raising war cries, shouts, cries of victory
"esp. in orgiastic rites"" (cf. LSJ)
Orgastic rites (from Greek ὀργια / orgia) denote secret, often ecstatic or frenzied religious rituals, typically associated with mystery cults such as those of Dionysus (Bacchus).
In these rites, participants would produce loud cries, shouts, or screams as part of their ritual expressions of ecstatic worship and possession.
The verb ἀλαλάζω, meaning “to shout loudly” or “raise a war-cry,” is especially attested in such contexts, emphasizing the intense, vociferous character of the ceremonies.
For example, Euripides’ Bacchae uses ἀλαλάζω to describe the wild cries of Bacchic followers (e.g., Eur. Bacch. 593), reflecting the ritualistic shouting or ululation (alalalalalilililililili) typical of these rites.
If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I have been the brass of echoes, and the shouting cymbal.
None
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
