The great composer of our time in the field of Jewish music, Yishai Ribo, surprises with a new song in light of the period “Lo Nafsik Lachlom.” A song that describes the world swinging in the face of eternal prophecy. Like many in the world, Yishai found himself searching for words in the face of the news and harsh sights of the period. “I was looking for the right words after the time that has passed since I wrote, and especially in light of the inconceivable upheavals the world is going through these days.”

וְכִתְּתוּ חַרְבוֹתָם לְאִתִּים,
וַחֲנִיתוֹתֵיהֶם לְמַזְמֵרוֹת
לֹא יִשָֹּא גוֹי אֶל גּוֹי חֶרֶב,
וְלֹא יִלְמְדוּ עוֹד מִלְחָמָה

“I wrote Lo Nafsik Lachlom a few years ago was inspired by the words of the navi Yeshaya about the nevouah of the end times and I even got to sing it in a number of performances. But every time I went to release it, something stopped me, maybe because part of this process really. And now this song seems to be coming out on its own.”

May we have the desire to believe and be redeemed in complete redemption for a world that will no longer carry a nation to another with swords and will no longer learn war…
