What Is Moshiach Seuda and Why Do We Have It

Apr 7, 2026·1 min read

Stump the Rabbi:

At the very end of Pesach, there is a unique seuda known as the Moshiach Seuda, where we eat matzah, drink four cups of wine, and sing the Rabbeim’s niggunim. But where does this custom come from, and why do we eat this special seuda at the very end of Pesach? What does it have to do with Moshiach, and what is its significance?
