Shuli Rand Praises Ben Tzur's Caesarea Concert as a Spiritual Triumph
During Ben Tzur's concert at the Caesarea Amphitheater on Monday evening, Shuli Rand joined him on stage to perform the song "The King in the Field," famously sung by Rand and Bar Tsabari. Before their duet, Rand expressed deep admiration for Ben Tzur, calling the event a "sanctification of God's name" and marveling at the unity and faith of the Israeli people. He told the audience, "Who would dream, who would believe it would be like this, the people of Israel in their glory, in their faith."
Rand elaborated on the spiritual significance of Ben Tzur's name, linking it to divine themes by saying, "Do you know what Ben Tzur means? The Rock of the Worlds, the Son of God, blessed by the Holy One, who tells God's story to you, and we are fortunate and blessed." He connected the moment to the approaching Hebrew month of Elul, a time of spiritual reflection, noting, "Brothers, the month of Elul is near, and even the fish return trembling. I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine; this is Elul, and in Elul the King descends to the field. The King, the Holy One, comes to gather the prayers."
The concert highlighted a blend of music and faith, emphasizing the cultural and religious significance of the performance in Israel's national and spiritual life.
