I don't understand the clue. I thought at first it was going to be angels. Thanks Thomas

I really enjoyed this puzzle, Thomas.

You can correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that Cohen = Hebrew priest or Rabbi. And the Priestly Blessing is when the Rabbi/Priest lifts his hands to invoke the blessing of the Lord.

The blessing is from Numbers 6:24-26 and is translated by the Jewish Publication Society as follows:

The Lord bless you and keep you!
The Lord deal kindly and graciously with you!
The Lord bestow His favor upon you and grant you His friendship!

It's true but Kohen isn't a Rabbi but original group of the High Rabbis, who are derivated from Aaron :)

Thanks for the distinction, Thomas.

No Kristen. It's only for the unique solving. :)
