the prayer is called Kiddush (Heb. "santification"), it's the customary blessing over wine (or grape juice) on the Sabbath as well as holidays. sometimes preceded on Shabbat by a recitation of Gen. 1:31-2:3 ("And it was evening, and it was morning, the sixth day etc.").
I've had a thought about the image of the candle (here, and near the end when the rabbi says the Sabbath prayer in Schindler's factory). It brings to mind the proverb "It is better to light one small candle than to curse the darkness" and the line from Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice: "How far that little candle throws his beams/So shines a good deed in a naughty world." Both of which apply to Schindler: he made some difference against one of the greatest evils in history.
I've been looking for this for years. I first saw Schindler's List in my early years of High School, and went on to buy the collector's set later in 2005. This prayer always stuck out in my mind. Errie, haunting, and beautiful at the same time. Thank you for posting it.
I was just about halfway through my college education when I learned about how a certain milestone in the film industry entered the scene that I surprisingly realized seemed essential in order to make that type of experience a reality now that you mention it.
Interesting fact: If you look closely at the candles lit for the ceremony near the end of the movie, the flames are in color. Nice little bit of symbolism there, isn't it?
I'm Jewish. Women recite the prayer for lighting the shabbat candles. This prayer was the kiddush over the wine. A little confusing but a great scene nonetheless.
@@joewhitehead3 The blessing for lighting the candles would have been too short for the length of the entire scene. Plus the man is holding the kiddush cup, so it's all good and I assume they simply skipped ahead 😉 It did confuse me the first time I saw the film, though.
The little boy's attention to the prayer is unbelievable... you can't teach that kind of acting... I wonder how Mr. Spielberg "coached" that scene-so beautiful, so, so tragic.
Can't say I've seen any other film start with such a beautiful and solemn opening. Schindler's List is one of the best films ever created in my opinion
What does that scene mean? It’s the only scene who is colorized besides the girl in the red coat. Great but also sad movie which should remind us that this cannot allowed to happen ever again
Candles are life. People who lit the candles were alive and together in prayer (I think). Then there is room with just candles, meaning they were deported. When the light fades away it is the moment their life goes instict. Colours fade away to symbolise death that will hunt entire movie. Colours return at the very end when survivors honour the grave of Schindler, symbolising the end of suffering. That's my interpretation.
@@aleksapetrovic6519 About half an hour before the end, there's the scene where Rabbi Levartov celebrates the Sabbath in Schindler's factory. The flames of the candles he lights are in color, in contrast to the black-and-white background.

No he just made something up. His own language if you will. Of course it’s Hebrew...there’s a descendant of the person’s voice you’re hearing here in the comment section. He says it’s a Hungarian accent.
As soon as that match struck and gave light into the darkness, I knew this film was going to be a masterpiece.
I was 12 when I went to the movies for this with my father. And I knew the exact same ...
This scene is genius and full of symbols. For any student of film science a must-see!
The colour faded symbolising the cherish moments of human life turn to dark gloomy eerie days of suffering and brutal deaths due to war

It is very poignant

Such a powerful scene to open the movie
I thought azamat hated jews lol. I'm sry i know this scene and movie are sad.
This movie is a masterpiece Something for centuries ahead
Very well done the symbolism used. Those poor souls lost
Putting it in black and white and grey is perfectly writing Wizard of Oz on backwards
This is one of the only color scenes in the movie. Nearly the entire movie is in black and white.
There is also scenes with the girl with the pink coat, and the ending has full color.
except the little girl in the red coat

C.J. O'Dell also when the rabbi lights the candle in the factory close to the end, the flame is in color
Geniously Janusz Kaminski.
Barruk atah Adonia, Elohinu me lek ha'olam. We love you Elohim. .
very similar to vedic chanting :)
stuck in my mind since 2003 when I first heard, will explore more connections
This is sampled on the song ‘never again’ on the Wu Tang Killer Bees album ‘the swarm’
jhee! i never knew that, heavy!
ironic thing about the title: he doesn't make the blessing for kindling the lights. He says Kiddush.
He wouldn't say the blessing for kindling the lights. That is a woman's place in the ceremony. Women run the household.
I know, just pointing out it's mistitled.
“Rabbi, could this happen in my lifetime?”
“It could happen tomorrow morning, if you are not careful.”
Brilliant opening in every sense!
I'm Jewish. Women recite the prayer for lighting the shabbat candles. This prayer was the kiddush over the wine. A little confusing but a great scene nonetheless.

Moshe Ben Israel This is Kiddush, not Kaddish
kiddush.
Great scene, but he has about six different accents while he's reciting the bracha, which is a bit confusing.
The kiddush you hear was recorded by my father (OBM), a survivor, Emil Katz. It was an authentic Hungarian accent.
Trying to say something kind but I guess the author isn’t having it. Oh well.
