Why Do we make Kiddush (Blessing Over Wine) On Shabbat? The word Kiddush means holiness and through the words that we recite over a cup of wine, we declare that this day is special, unique- set aside from the rest of the week. We feel this more elevated and spiritual state on Shabbat, as we pull back from the normal activities of the work-week. We also thank G-d for the great gift of Shabbat, and highlight the fact that he gave it to us willingly, and lovingly. Each week, through Kiddush, we reaffirm this special bond of love between the Jewish People and G-d anew! #projectinspire #jinspire #inspiration #torah #shalom #shabbat #shabbos #fridaynight #blessings #brachot #kiddush
