Who is obligated in the mitzvah

  1. Kiddish of Yom Tov is made over the first cup of wine of the Seder. Therefore even though by Kiddish on Friday night one person can fulfill the obligation of everyone else by drinking the cup, on Pesach night there’s a separate obligation on everyone to drink the four cups of wine. [1]
  2. Women are also obligated in the mitzvah of four cups of wine because they were also part of the miracle. [2]
  3. It's preferable to give the children who reached the age of Chinuch a cup for the four cups of wine. [3]

Text of the Kiddish

  1. If Pesach night falls out on Friday night, we add in Kiddish Vayichulu. [4]
  2. If Pesach night falls out on Saturday night, the Kiddish and Havdalah is combined in the following order of the Brachot: (1) Borei Pri HaGafen, (2) HaMekadesh Yisrael VeZmanim, (3) Bore Meorei HaEsh, (4) HaMavdil Ben Kodesh LeChol, and (5) Shehecheyanu. (a nemonic is Yaknahaz- Yayin, Kiddish, Ner, Havdalah, Zman) [5]
  3. If one forgot to say Havdalah in Kiddish one should finish the brachot of Gaal Yisrael at the end of Maggid and then say Havdalah. [6]


Timing of Kaddesh

  1. One shouldn't say Kiddish before Tzet HaChochavim. [7]
  2. Even one learning in a Bet Medrash should stop to start the meal on time (at Tzet) so that the children will be awake to ask questions. [8]

The Shehecheyanu of Kaddesh

  1. The Bracha of Shehecheyanu is part of the Kiddish. [9]
  2. If one forgot to make the Shehecheyanu during the Kiddish: some hold one can make it anytime afterwards that day and if you remember on the second day of Yom Tov you should fulfill the obligation with the Shehecheyanu of that day's kiddish and if you forgot also then one can say it during the rest of peasch, even if one remembers in the marketplace. However, some argue that one can only make the bracha until one says the bracha of Asher Galanu of the Magid because that fulfills one's requirement. [10]
  3. If a woman already made Shehecheyanu during the candle lighting some say it's an interruption to answer amen unless one has in mind while lighting the candles that the Shehecheyanu should cover the Yom Tov but not the mitzvah of Matzah and Maror. However others hold it's not considered an interruption and the amen can be answered. [11]
  4. One should have in mind to fulfill the obligation of saying Shehecheyanu for the mitzvah of Matzah, Maror and Sippur Yetziat Mitzrayim when saying Shehecheyanu in Kiddish. [12]

Drinking the first cup

  1. One doesn’t need to wash one’s hands before Kiddish. If one’s hands aren’t clean one should wash one’s hands with a little water (without a bracha). [13]
  2. In order to display an act of royalty, each person shouldn’t pour their own cup rather someone else should pour the wine for them. [14]
  3. There is no Bracha Achrona on the first cup of wine. [15]

  7. ↑ Rosh Pesachim 10:2 writes that the night of Pesach is special that we don't do the mitzvot before night even though by Shabbat and other Yom Tovim we hold that one can add from the weekdays to the Shabbat or Yom Tov. Thus, Tur writes that one shouldn't eat the meal before night night. Bet Yosef 472:1 quotes the Trumat HaDeshen that rules that even the Kiddish which is part of the four cups of the Seder must be done at night. So rules S"A 473:1 that Kiddish and the rest of the mitzvot of the night need to be done during the night. The Taz 472:1 gives another reason the Kiddish must be done at night; because the Kiddish is done in order to eat the Matzah and have Kiddish BeMakom Seudah, just like the Matzah has to be at night so too does the Kiddish.

  10. ↑ The Magan Avraham 6 73:1 comments that one can make up the bracha of Shehecheyanu all the days of the peasch just like any other holiday and proves it from Eiruvin 40b which concludes that one can say Shehecheyanu all seven days. However, Sh"t Arugat HaBosem 144 argues that after you make the bracha on the haggadah of Asher Galanu one has fulfilled his obligation of Shehecheyanu because it includes the words "Vahigiyanu HaLaylah HaZeh". The Sh"t Siach Yitzchak and Chazon Ovadyah (Peasch vol 2 pg 29) rule like the Arugot HaBosem and bring a proof from the Orchot Chaim who ask why do we say Vahigiyanu in Asher Galanu if we already said Shehecheyanu implying that Asher Galanu can fulfill the requirement of Shehecheyanu.

  11. ↑ Rav Tzvi Pesach Frank in Sh"T Har Tzvi 1:154 quotes those who say that one shouldn't answer amen tothe Shehecheyanu since the woman already fulfill her obligation and it'd be an interruption between the Borei Pri HaGafen and drinking the cup (since there's an obligation of 4 cups even woman are obligated to drink after Kiddish). Rav Frank adds that lechatchila one should be careful not even to hear the bracha in the kiddish because just hearing it can be a Hefsek. Rav Vosner in Sh"t HaLevi 3:69 rules that an amen would be an interruption unless the Shehecheyanu was coming to fulfill some obligation. Therefore on Peasch where the Shehecheyanu is coming for the Matzah, Maror, and Sippur Yitziyat Mitzrayim, an amen isn't an interruption. Rav Ovadyah in Chazon Ovadyah (Peasch vol 2 pg 27) concurs. For this reason, Rabbi Eliezer Waldenberg in Sh"t Tzitz Eliezer 10:19 is lenient that the woman is allowed to even make the bracha again. Rav Shlomo Zalman Aurbach in Sh"t Minchat Shlomo 2:60(24) argues that since Shehecheyanu is part of the established Kiddish it isn't an interruption at all to answer amen.
