Elijah Cup is the fifth ceremonial cup of wine poured during
the family Seder dinner on Passover (Pesah). It is left untouched
in honour of Elijah, who, according to tradition, will arrive
one day as an unknown guest to herald the advent of the Messiah.
During the Seder dinner, biblical verses are read while the
door is briefly opened to welcome Elijah.
