Numbers 6:22-27
22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 23 “Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is the way you shall bless the children of Israel. Say to them: 24 “The Lord bless you and keep you; 25 The Lord make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; 26 The Lord lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.” ’ 27 “So they shall put My name on the children of Israel, and I will bless them.”
The blessing came directly from God for the less is blessed of the better. Only mediated through the priest. Must out of love and sincere heart and thus it should be received as well.. Jesus also lifted up His hands and blessed the disciples
The word Lord is mentioned three times- signifies trinity. Three in one
“the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of the Father, and the communion of the Holy Spirit” 2 Co 13:14
