A Kiddush Cup is a cup
that is used at the Shabbos Meal, Havdalah, Passover
and Yom Tov. A Kiddush cup can be a plain and
simple cup. However, to beautify the Shabbat
most Jews have a sterling silver cup. |

Kiddush (Hebrew: קידוש,
literally, "sanctification") is the act of sanctifying
Shabbat (the Jewish Sabbath) or a Jewish holiday
through the act of reciting a blessing over a cup of
kosher wine or kosher grape juice. Because the Torah
speaks of Shabbat using the language Shamor v'Zakhor,
keep it and remember it, Jews believe that Shabbat law
consists both of what one may not do and what one must
do in order to make the day special. The ceremony of
kiddush before the night meal on both Shabbat and
Jewish holidays, therefore, is regarded as mandated by
the Torah although it does not appear in the Torah in
explicit language; the recital of kiddush at the
morning meal on Shabbat and holidays is mandated by
the Rabbis of the Great Assembly. Kiddush is not
typically recited at the third meal ("Seudah Shlishit")
on Shabbat, although Maimonides was of the view that
this should be done and some follow this custom. |
