Since this book gives no source for this statement, can any reader supply it? However, since the halachah is not in accordance with Rav Chidka, is it not problematic to intend that the eating of this food at the kiddush is to fulfill this opinion? </span></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">The mon in the midbar did not fall on Shabbos, but instead a double quantity fell on Friday. To commemorate this, one says hamozi over two loaves of bread on the Shabbos meals. According to some opinions the mon also did not fall on Yom Tov. (Tosafos on Beitzah 2b d.h. &ldquo;vehoyoh&rdquo;) It could follow that if Yom Tov were to be on Friday or Sunday, then a triple quantity of mon would fall on the Thursday if Yom Tov were on Friday, or on the Friday if Yom Tov was on Sunday. One could thus possibly come to the conclusion that three loaves of bread should be used for hamotzi for the meals on such an occasion!</span></span></span></p>

The mekubalim also hold this opinion. (Aruch Hashulchan, Orach Chaim 291:10) Because of these opinions, it is customary to drink wine during seudah shelishis. (Mishnah Berurah 291: 21) At kiddush one has to drink a certain quantity of wine &ndash; kimlo lugmov. Does it follow that since drinking wine at seudah shelishis is in place of kiddush, one has to drink the same quantity of wine as for kiddush, or is just a sip sufficient? </span></span></span></p>
