Thinking about a Clouded Torah
Clouded Torah, where I share my thoughts on the weekly Parsha in relation to The Cloud, Technology, Computers, etc.

Chevre, this week’s parsha is Naso (נשא). In the parsha this week we have the priestly blessing. In Israel this happens in shul at least once a day, outside of Israel, this happens only during the holidays. I once heard a great explanation about why the priests turn their back to Jerusalem and to the ark holding the Torah scrolls and face the congregation. The priests are sending forth a blessing from their own reserves of blessing and sending it out onto the people in the congregation.
