Birkat Kohanim Beautiful. Thank you so much Chabad and Avraham Fried. I have been attending our local synagogue for seven years now. I converted to Judaism one year ago. I am learning more each day thanks to you Chabad. You are wonderful. I love being a part of the Jewish community and people of Israel. Shalom. Reply
I am a Levy; and miss going to Shul with my Dad and, when I was young, standing beneath his Tallis to avert my eyes when the Kohanim were blessing us. Reply
Brikos Kohanim beautful! I am in the process of converting to Judaism and hearing this helps reenforce for me why I am converting. because I love the people, stucture, and community and want to be part of the people of Israel. Thank you! Reply
Chabad Nusach I'm also a Kohen and never heard the Chabad nusach for Birkas Kohanim. To make it clear, though, there are different niggunim used for birkas kohanim - and some don't even sing during Birkas Kohanim. Thank you. Reply
Birkas Hakohanim emotionally inspiration
Every Hay yayayayayayayayaah, preceding the blessing elevates the soul of the kohamin to higher sphere connecting him with the Divine to bless us all in the four corners of the world, from His Holy City Jerusalem!
Thanks Chabad for this blessing melody!

Birkat Kohamin Melody Thanks to A Fried, Jewish TV and Chabad.org for having this on. I will listen to this many times and practice with it as I am a a Kohen with little experience. The term could be BT (baal teshuvah -- returnee to judaism) but we are all BT's. Thanks to you and my local Chabad Rabbi for sending this to me. Reply

Thank you for the memories
