Singer Ariel Borsutzky Releases Vocal Version of Song Inspired by Ramchal Writings
As the Jewish period of Bein HaMetzarim (the Three Weeks of mourning) begins, Israeli singer and composer Ariel Borsutzky has released a special vocal rendition of his song "Yediat HaEmet" (Knowing the Truth). The song’s lyrics and melody were personally written by Borsutzky, drawing deep inspiration from the teachings and writings of Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzatto, known as the Ramchal, author of the ethical work "Mesilat Yesharim".
This new vocal version expresses a heartfelt longing and spiritual connection, aligning with the somber and reflective mood of the Bein HaMetzarim period. The release aims to evoke introspection and emotional resonance among listeners familiar with the Ramchal’s philosophy. The song and its cover art were shared through media channels on July 5, 2026.
Borsutzky’s work continues to engage audiences interested in Jewish spiritual music, blending traditional themes with contemporary composition. The vocal version adds a new dimension to the original piece, enhancing its emotional impact during this significant time in the Jewish calendar.
