- LIVE LONG AND PROSPER: Judaism's Priestly Blessing (The Aaronic Benediction) - Rabbi Michael Skobac
The “Birchat Cohanim” - Priestly Blessing, is one of the few rituals practiced in the Tabernacle and Holy Temple that are still practiced today. This blessing is also sometimes referred to as the Aaronic Benediction and is probably the oldest ongoing ritual blessing recited in the world today.
The source of this blessing, that is relayed to Israel through the Priestly descendants of Aaron, is found in the book of Numbers, chapter 6 verses 24-26.
May God bless you and guard you.
May God shine His countenance upon you and be gracious to you.
May God turn His countenance toward you and grant you peace.
When this blessing is recited by Cohanim (Priests), they hold their hands up with their fingers spread apart to form lattices.
In this video, Rabbi Michael Skobac discusses this ancient ritual, how it is performed and what its meaning and significance is.

JEWS FOR JUDAISM is an outreach organization whose primary goal is to win back to Judaism those Jews who have been influenced by the following six threats to Jewish survival that are devastating the global Jewish community.
1. Hebrew-Christian missionaries convert thousands of Jews worldwide every year
2. Destructive cults cause many Jews to abandon family, friends and careers
3. Eastern religions, Buddhism and Hinduism are spiritual choices for many Jews
4. Apathy and ignorance leave many Jews unaware, unaffiliated and assimilated
5. Intermarriage is exploding with a 75% rate in some North American cities
6. Anti-Israel BDS on campus inhibits Jewish students from standing up for Israel and Judaism
To assist non-Jews who have left other religions, JEWS FOR JUDAISM also provides educational programs to help them embrace the Torah’s Seven Noachide Laws for Gentiles.
We achieve our goals through our worldwide Internet outreach, Social Media, free educational programs, educational literature and counseling services that connect Jewish people to the spiritual depth, beauty and wisdom of Judaism.
“I am so grateful to have discovered the wonderful Jews for Judaism TH-cam lectures by Rabbi Skobac. I am a Jew who converted to Christianity in college, but now, thanks to your online outreach, I have returned to Judaism. Thank you.” - Rebecca G.
In a nutshell, Jews for Judaism saves Jewish lives and keeps Jews Jewish.

Thank you Rabbi,
I have had this experience in my bones, after realising that the village (in Afghanistan) where I live has kind of connection with Israel, then suddenly I felt my elbow and hands shivering, vibrating and becoming cold for some minutes, also my lips and throat,
I really wanna discuss it with some one who can help me realise this experience,
@Leonard Weisfeld: You say there "...isn't really an outreach program by Orthodox Jews to bring me back into the fold.". There certainly is! That's the main purpose of Jews for Judaism (the rabbi speaking in this video is the founder), and there are also videos on here called Tenak Talk, hosted by a former Christian, who is now a Noahide (learns from the Orthodox rabbis, the parts of Tanach that are for non-Jews) and has Orthodox rabbis, such as Rabbi Tovia Singer and Rabbi Moshe Shulman, on the program as guests, with the purpose of brining Jews back to full observance.
@Leonard Weisfeld What you are saying is sooo not true. There are many Jewish Orthodox Outreach programs to bring Jews back into the fold. Here are just four of many Orthodox Jewish outreach organizations that Jews from all backgrounds are finding meaning and purpose through:

Good evening Brother.
Very good video. When those words are said during prayer, the congregation answers, Kayn Y'he Ratzon, May that be His will. It's like affirming the blessing, right?
Thank you again rabbi skobach
Where are the other rabbi's?
What "other rabbis" are you referring to? This is a Jews for Judaism video, and there are other videos on here by this organization, by various rabbis and lay people.
