Sasson on the Priestly Benediction

JACK SASSON, of Agade List fame (among his many accomplishments) has drawn my attention to his recent article on the Priestly Benediction (Birkat Kohanim):
"On Birkat Kohanim (Numbers 6:24–26) and its Citation." Jack M. Sasson. Pp. 379-402 in Richard Hidary, ed. Torat Moshe: Essays in Honor of Rabbi Moshe Shamah's Eightieth Birthday & the Jubileee of Sephardic Institute. Brooklyn: Tebah Educational Services & Sephardic Institute, 2022.
