In our Tuesday Gesher L'Noar class, we started the book of Numbers! We started the book by looking at a prayer we have all probably heard at one point or another: the Priestly Benediction. This prayer is often said at a bris, baby naming, bar/bat mitzvah, or wedding, just to name a few occasions. We looked at the prayer line by line, dissected it a little bit, and then did a study on the symbolism of the prayer. We finished our class by making modge podge creations of the Priestly Benedition, by placing tissue paper through hand cutouts of the symbol. We will hang the creations on the window, so the sunlight shines through them, to remind us that God is watching over us!
