Footnotes

  1. 56 This brief section records the blessing of the priest, especially the high priest after he emerges from the holy of holies to bless the people (see Lev 9:22). The two main elements in the oracle are “grace and peace.” It is probable that the Apostle Paul based his salutations on this oracle. For additional information, see L. J. Liebreich, “The Songs of Ascent and the Priestly Blessing,” 74 (1955): 33–36; P. D. Miller, “The Blessing of God: An Interpretation of Num 6:22–27,” 29 (1975): 240–51; and A. Murtonen, “The Use and Meaning of the Words lébarek and bérakah in the Old Testament,” 9 (1959): 158–77.
