Kiddush

Haggadah Section: Kadesh

Kadesh - Kiddush

The first cup of wine is poured and the Kiddush is recited.

When the festival occurs onShabbat, start here:

(...and it was evening and it was morning-)
The sixth day. And the heavens and the earth and all their hosts were completed. And on the seventh dayG-dfinished His work which He had made, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. And G-d blessed the seventh day and made it holy, for on it He rested from all His work which G-d created to make.

When the festival begins on a weekday begin here:

With the permission of all those present:

Blessed are You, L-rd, our G-d, King of the universe, who creates the fruit of the vine.

Blessed are You, G-d, our G-d, King of the universe, who has chosen us from among all people, and raised us above all tongues, and made us holy through His commandments. And You, G-d, our G-d, have given us in love( On Shabbat add the shaded words: ) Shabbaths for rest andfestivals for happiness, feasts and festive seasons for rejoicingthis Shabbat-day andthe day of this Feast ofMatzotand this Festival of holy convocation, the Season of our Freedomin love, a holy convocation, commemorating the departure from Egypt. For You have chosen us and sanctified us from all the nations, and You have given us as a heritage Your holyShabbat andFestivalsin love and favor, in happiness and joy. Blessed are You, G-d, who sanctifiesthe Shabbat andIsraeland the festive seasons.

When the festival falls on Saturday night add the following:

Blessed are You, G-d, our G-d, King of the universe, who creates the lights of fire.
Blessed are You, G-d, our G-d, King of the universe, who makes a distinction between sacred and profane, between light and darkness, between Israel and the nations, between the seventh day and the six work-days. You have made a distinction between the holiness of the Shabbat and the holiness of the festival, and You have sanctified the seventh day above the six work-days. You have set apart and made holy Your people Israel with Your holiness. Blessed are You, G-d, who makes a distinction between holy and holy.

Blessed are You, G-d, our G-d, King of the universe, who has granted us life, sustained us, and enabled us to reach this occasion.

Drink the cup of wine while seated, reclining on the left side as a sign of freedom.
