Numbers 6:23–27

Numbers 6:23
The Torah commands the kohanim to bless Israel and places the priestly blessing at the center of the kohen’s public religious role. The passage does not discuss the design or stripes of a tallit, but it is the biblical foundation for later kohen-specific customs surrounding Birkat Kohanim.
דַּבֵּ֤ר אֶֽל־אַהֲרֹן֙ וְאֶל־בָּנָ֣יו לֵאמֹ֔ר כֹּ֥ה תְבָרְכ֖וּ אֶת־בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל אָמ֖וֹר לָהֶֽם׃ {ס}
