One Halakha Closer to Becoming an Eshet Hayil

BS''D

6 Nisan 5772


VII. The Seder


Kadesh a. After arranging the items on the Seder table correctly, the head of household recites Kiddush. Everyone should be standing and attentive and there should be no talking during the recital of the berakhot. Kiddush is recited after  set hakokhabim (the appearance of stars, which in New York is about 35 minutes after sunset). 


b. Each person should have his or her own cup containing at least 3 ounces (rebi`it) of wine and drink at least the majority of the cup. Red wine is preferable but grape juice may be used. This is the first of the four Seder cups. These regulations apply to all four cups.


c. The berakha of  hagefen  is recited on the first and third cups only. The drinking of the four cups and the eating of the matzot are done while reclining to the left. A left-handed person also reclines to the left.
