Fol. 17v: The illustrative panel at the center of the page alludes to the blessing over wine, Kiddush, recited on Sabbath Eve ceremony. In the illustration two couples are sitting a round a laid table within a tiled room with lighted Sabbath lamp (Judenstern with 6 arms), curtains and glassed window. The men are bearded and wearing hats, looking at each other while raising Kiddush cup. The women wearing kerchiefs, it seems that one of them also holds a cup. On the left side of the room is another table laid with a jar and a cup. The initial letters of the first four words of the blessing are emphasized, forming the acrostic of the Name of God. The words (from the 3rd word on) are topped by an alphabetic numeration in semi-cursive script in lighter ink.
