My thoughts are on Israel and Jerusalem as I've learned about the death of former Prime Minister Shimon Perez this week. He was a great leader and he loved his country. He longed for peace and pursued it.
As I prepare for sundown and Shabbat, I'm thinking of Jerusalem, the golden city. I remember the first time I heard this expression. A friend had recently visited there and described how golden the setting sun had colored the beautiful city on the hill. I was blessed to see that sight on my two visits to Israel. You can read about my visit HERE.
Enjoy this beautiful song as you enjoy Hashem's beautiful Sabbath. . . and pray for the peace of Yerushalyim.
Jerusalem of Gold (ירושלים של זהב, Yerushalayim Shel Zahav) - Ofra Haza - with English translation
