In this week’s parashah, we read of some of the most famous parental blessings ever given. Here, Cantor Schwartz blesses two of his own children, and sings a newly-commissioned setting of Y’simcha. Whether you are a parent, child, or other member of the community, we know you can appreciate this tender moment. We encourage you to bless the children in your lives according to this ancient custom or in your own special way. Wishing you a Shabbat Shalom and happy 2023!
