Yom Kippur blessing
Towards the end of the morning service the priests came to the Ark where the scrolls of Torah were and they asked God to share his blessing upon the congregation. This was a powerful moment. It was great to experience the descendants of the ancient Jewish priestly families to still practice the ritual and keep the family traditions. Perhaps that is why the genealogy for the Jews is so important. They need to know who among them are cohens – priests and who are levites – priests and temple workers so that some of the religious rituals can still be practiced.
