There are 4 cups of wine to recall the 4 promises YHWH gave to Moses in Exodus 6:6-7 "Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage , and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments: And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a God: and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God, which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.

I will bring you out (Cup of Sanctification)

I will free you (Cup of Deliverance)

I will redeem you (Cup of Redemption)

I will take you as my people (Cup of Restoration)

Pour the 1st cup of wine and recite:

Blessed are You, O Lord our God, King of the Universe, who creates the fruit of the vine.

Baruch Atah Ado-nai Elo-heinu Melech Ha-olam Boreh Pree Ha-ga-fen.

Now drink together!
