And the earth was silent for forty years

And the earth was silent for forty years

In the question: Was there a long period of silence and tranquility? Was there peace after war or various upheavals?

("And the land was quiet forty years, and Othniel the son of Kenaz died" - Judges 3:1, and so on: "Forty years the land was quiet. Forty years/ Horses and horsemen did not gallop, nor did the eyes of the righteous look on./ But she died, a short time after the death of her son" - Chayim Guri/ His mother, and so on: "Forty years of silence. Forty years/ Forty years the figs/ The fruits and the fullness of the land" - Aryeh Sivan/ Forty years of silence, and so: "I will not ask for a single small stone/ My head to rest in the shade of the olive tree/ And to be silent forty years" - Yoram Tahar, a pure heart/ The division of God, and so: "And the land will be silent. The eye of the red sky/ Will slowly darken/ On the borders "Smokers" - Nathan Alterman/ Moneylender)

בְּהַשְׁאָלָה: הָיְתָה תְּקוּפָה אֲרֻכָּה שֶׁל שֶׁקֶט וְשַׁלְוָה. הָיָה שָׁלוֹם לְאַחַר מִלְחָמָה אוֹ זַעֲזוּעִים שׁוֹנִים.
