ש
Shin also stands for the word Shaddai, a name for God

Position of the kohen's hands and fingers
 during the Priestly Blessing.

A kohen (or cohen, Hebrew כּהן , "priest", pl. כּהנִים , kohanim or cohanim) has a special status in Judaism. A kohen is a direct male descendant of the Biblical Aaron, brother of Moses. Another term for the descendants of Aaron are the Aaronites or Aaronids.

SHIN
A NAME FOR GOD

          As the letter “shin” stands for a name of God, each time I see it in a Hebrew word, I like to consider what connection God has with that word.
          My first attention is drawn to the two words:

Ish – איש  - man
Isha _ אישה  _ woman
ש   shin

EL SHADDAI:
The All Sufficient One, The God of the Mountains, God Almighty.
