#The text of [[Kiddish|kiddush]] during the day is just Borei Pri Hagefen.<ref>The Gemara Pesachim 106a states that the primary [[Kiddish|Kiddush]] is at night, but there's also a [[Kiddish|Kiddush]] of the day. Even though it seems to be Deoraitah, as the gemara learns it from a pasuk, the Rishonim agree that the pasuk is only an asmachta (Ravad and Magid Mishna (Hilchot [[Shabbat]] 29:10), quoted by Bear Heitiv 289:2) and the obligation of [[Kiddish|Kiddush]] during the day is only Rabbinic. The gemara concludes that the text of such a [[Kiddish|Kiddush]] is just Borei Pri [[HaGefen]]. Rambam (Hilchot [[Shabbat]] 29:10) and Shulchan Aruch 289:1 codify this as halacha. </ref>
