There's a chapter devoted to this work in "Janacek: his life and works," by Jaroslav Vogel, London: Paul Hamlyn, 1962, pp. 213-217. It's a setting of a poem by Jaroslav Vrchlicky, based in turn on writings of the Abbot Joachim de Fiore (d.1202). Vogel tells us, "...out of this muddled and rhetorical poem, Janacek created a deeply-felt declaration of faith in mankind..." Vogel also mentions that Joachim's work was "adapted" in 1527 by Hans Sachs.
This is not with the Czeck Philharmonic. Rather, the Vienna Philharmonic. Steude on principle violin. I have the radio broadcast recording. Best I've ever heard with Harnoncourt.
Drei Kantaten sind von Janacek überliefert: diese hier (das ewige Evangelium), dann Amarus und natürlich Tagebuch eines Verschollenen. Drei expressive Mini-Opern, in denen die Tenöre schwere Sachen zu singen haben. Die übliche YouT - Schlamperei: man erfährt nicht, wer da singt!

Спасибо за информацию, все-таки музыка Яначека нуждается в популяризации, она не часто звучит, хотя она прекрасна.
What is the source of the text?

Удивительный, особенный композитор Леонид Яначек.
