Question

I need quite a few, more than Boys and girls stuff. Thanks and keep it simple!

Answer 1

Bat Mitzvah--when a Jewish girl becomes responsible for fulfilling her religious obligations to Judaism, at the age of 12.
Bar Mitzvah--when a Jewish boy becomes reponsible for fulfilling his religious obligations to Judaism, at the age of 13. It involved laying tefillin and reading from the Torah.

Answer 2

well the only difference i know is that a Bar Mitzvah is for boys and a Bat Mitzvah is for girls.

Answer 3

According to Jewish law, when Jewish children reach the age of maturity (12 years for girls, 13 years for boys) they become responsible for their actions. At this point a boy is said to become Bar Mitzvah (Hebrew: בר מצוה, "one (m.) to whom the commandments apply"); a girl is said to become Bat Mitzvah (בת מצוה, "one (f.) to whom the commandments apply").

Before this age, all the child's responsibility to follow Jewish law and tradition lies with the parents. After this age, the children are privileged to participate in all areas of Jewish community life and bear their own responsibility for Jewish ritual law, tradition and ethics.
