An important life cycle event for a young Jewish girl is the Bat Mitzvah. Girls are Bat Mitzvah when they are twelve. However, the girl's ceremony can be postponed to their thirteenth birthday as well. The literal meaning of Bat Mitzvah is "commandment age" or age of majority.

A young Jewish womans(12-13yrs) womanhood ceremony for the Jewish religion. It kinda translates to womans blessing.
She has to study the history and language and read from the Torah
to be considered a woman of the community.
