When we recognize White Rose Honorees, a Rabbi often offers the Priestly Blessing (Birkat Kohanim)—a powerful Jewish prayer invoking God’s protection, grace, and peace. Beginning with “Yevarechecha Adonai” (“May the Lord bless you”), this ancient blessing is a sacred expression of gratitude and divine favor. This moment is more than words—it is a profound spiritual connection, honoring those who stand boldly with the Jewish people. ?? Rabbi Peter S. Berg, The Temple, Atlanta, GA honoring Pastor Jentezen Franklin
