Question
If someone does not have wine for the Friday night Kiddush, but wine will arrive later on Shabbat, and he wants to eat, is he allowed to eat before Kiddush?
Answer
He can make Kiddush on bread, and if he does not have bread, he must wait until midnight. If the wine arrives after midnight, there is no need to wait for the wine.
