Machshava:
Exploring Judaism 

Description

What exactly is a Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah? What is being celebrated? Why are the ages of thirteen for a boy and twelve for a girl determinative of traditional Jewish adulthood? What is the reason for a big party which has been exaggerated and caricatured of late? When should the celebration take place and why? This podcast will help answer all these questions.
