			== Thumbs touching ==

			"The thumbs should be spread out, as well, and not touching." Pretty sure there's a widespread practice among Orthodox cohanim to touch thumbs. I'm sure the source cited says not to, but are there other sources that say the opposite?

	Thanks so much for all your input on this article, it's looking great. There was just one thing I wanted to clarify. I didn't phrase the "shaliach tizbbur 'feeds' the words to the cohanim" because feeds isn't a literal expression and someone who doesn't know what birkat cohanim looks like won't understand. (It seems to me to be a more yeshivish term than a proper expression). I'd prefer to use a literal explanation, such as "the shaliach tizbbur says the words of birkat cohanim, one at a time, and the cohanim repeat each word after the sheliach tzibbur. I'm not looking to cause a fight but trying to improve the site. If you still disagree, please explain your thought.
