Rabbah said: Yahnak;<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' He agrees with Rab that Ner (light) interposes between kiddush and habdalah, because it is illogical to recite them consecutively, since they are mutually contradictory, as it were, kiddush declaring that the day is sacred, whereas habdalah declares that it is not as sacred as the Sabbath. He also agrees with Samuel that habdalah comes before kiddush, and he places wine (Yayin) at the head of all, for the reason stated on p. 541, n. 10.');">¹</span> Levi said: Kanyah;<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' He too puts kiddush before habdalah, but holds that if wine is put at the beginning, the interval between it and habdalah will be so great that it may appear that the habdalah is not being recited over wine, which is essential. But kiddush need not be in immediate proximity to the wine, since it may be recited over bread too. For that reason too Ner (light) precedes the wine, so that the latter may be nearer to habdalah than to kiddush. - Rashbam transposes these last two views, mainly on the basis of J.T.');">²</span> the Rabbis said: Kiynah;<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' They too place kiddush before habdalah. Hence we commence with kiddush, and then recite habdalah in its usual order, which is yayin');">³</span>
