The Bar/Bat Mitzvah Guide

The Bar/Bat Mitzvah Guide

This 7 page long guide from Aish.com outlines everything you need to know about the Jewish coming-of-age ceremony. Rabbi Shraga Simmons introduces the rituals of the synagogue ceremony and reception, provides meaningful gift ideas, and explains the mitzvah of putting on tefillin, emphasizing the importance of the Bar/Bat Mitzvah being the stepping stone for a more mature relationship with Jewish learning, as opposed to the culmination of one’s Jewish education. Although aimed at a wide audience, this article is written from an Orthodox Ashkenazi perspective.
