Kiddush. The Jewish ceremony of the sanctification of the
Sabbath or other holy day. It takes place at the evening meal on the eve of the day in question, when the head of the household says the ‘Kiddush’ or ‘Blessing’ of the day over a cup of wine and water. It has been argued that Christ's blessing of the cup at the
Last Supper was the Kiddush of the
Passover.
