What is a challah and what does it symbolise?
Challah is the bread that is eaten on Shabbos (Sabbath). It is customarily braided and often is glazed with egg before baking. The Challah symbolizes the Manna that the Israelites ate in the wilderness. Two loaves are placed on the table at each Shabbos meal, symbolizing the double portion of Manna (Exodus ch.16).
How do the Jews eat challah on sabbath?
At the beginning of the sabbath dinner Friday Evening, and at lunch after Saturday morning services, the meal begins with kiddush, a ritual blessing for bread and wine. The bread (challah) is covered during the blessing for wine, and then after everyone has had their sip of wine, the challah is uncovered for the blessing for bread. Then, pieces of challah are distributed to everyone present (or everyone tears a piece from the loaf) and everyone takes a bite. In some communities, it is traditional to dip the piece in (or sprinkle salt on) the bread. After this, everyone digs into the meal. From that point onward, the remaining challah is just bread, eaten like any other bread with no special rituals.Some communities insist that challah should be torn and not sliced. In other communities, there are special ceremonial bread knives used just for challah at the sabbath meal.Christian visitors frequently find the kiddush blessings to be suspiciously similar to communion, probably because the communion ritual evolved from the kiddush ritual -- Christians argue that communion descends from Passover, but that's just an elaborate kiddush done with unleavened bread.
