Can kiddush be fulfilled with bread alone, or must wine always be purchased if Chanukah candles are needed?
Synopsis
Kiddush can be fulfilled with bread (from Torah), making Chanukah candles the priority over wine for Havdalah; however, if wine is specifically for kiddush (day Kiddush), it is less essential since bread suffices.
