“A man should go on living – if only to satisfy his curiosity.”
Jewish people are curious… and that’s a good thing.
Curiosity creates progress.
Without curiosity, you’re not asking questions. Without asking questions, you can’t find answers.
And just as our Chinese friends say: “He who asks a question is a fool for five minutes; he who does not ask a question remains a fool forever”.
So ask questions… we’ll try to answer.
What’s the difference between a Bar & Bat Mitzvah?
Are there any similarities between them?
What do the words “Bar Mitzvah” and “Bat Mitzvah” even mean?
OK OK, enough with the questions. Let’s start getting some answers…
You’re attending a Bar/Bat Mitzvah ceremony…
You got the boy a nice Bar Mitzvah gift (or the girl a unique Bat Mitzvah gift) for their special day…
Now… the only question remains:
“What do you write in the Bar/Bat Mitzvah card?”
After all, you want to let them know how much they mean to you, right?
These Bar/Bat Mitzvah card messages & wishes will help you do just that.
OK, OK… enough teasing.
Let’s go write a Bar/Bat Mitzvah wish that’ll make your card stand out!
Note: And yes, I’m giving you full permission to use, copy or share these blessings as you please!
Tip: If you don’t have time to personalize the card yourself, then you can get this cute Bar/Bat Mitzvah card instead.
Does a Bar Mitzvah get circumcised?
Is that what the Bar Mitzvah is for?
Can you have a Bar Mitzvah without getting circumcised?
Questions like these aren’t unusual (don’t feel bad! you’re a curious fella, that’s good!).
Well, that’s because Judaism has so many unique traditions (like Bar Mitzvah & circumcision) that it’s hard to keep track of em’ all.
But what’s the connection between these two Jewish traditions?
Let’s get to the bottom of this (and bust a few myths along the way).
The Jewish Shofar isn’t a “regular” instrument…
Let’s just say – don’t expect to walk down the streets of Israel and see a Rabbi jamming with a Shofar.
That’s not what the Shofar is for…
So…
Excellent questions!
