Barmitzvah photo
How about candlesticks, a challah (picturewise, I mean)...? You weren't born from thin air, bubbeleh! Man + Woman = Baby. Take woman away and you have the common enemy of Jesus and the Pharisees: Decadent pagan Ancient Rome.--[[User:Antinous|Antinous]] 23:29, 5 November 2008 (EST)

Bar Mitzvah means son of the commandments, Bat Mitzvah means daughter of the Commandments. Technically, when a boy turns 13, he becomes Bar Mitzvah, a man, responsible for the commandments. There is often a ceremony to celebrate the child becoming Bar Mitzvah, however the ceremony is not called a Bar Mitzvah as the article says.

I have changes Denomination to Branches as it is more fitting to the concept in Judaism and is clear to both Jews and Christians. "Denomination" is more familiar and approachable to Christians but is more inexact than "Branch". In Hebrew, "zerem" is often used which bears the understanding of movenent or current and quite close to branch (in our sense).[[User:BertSchlossberg|Bert Schlossberg]] 20:06, 13 December 2009 (EST)

== Picture ==
A picture is described as showing a barmitzvah at the Western Wall. I doubt that it shows a barmitzvah. The boy is wearing tefillin, which are not worn on the Sabbath, and two people are taking photos (one in the picture, one taking the picture), which are activities forbidden on the Sabbath. Also, there is no Torah scroll in evidence. [[User:Peto|Peto]] 12:48, 18 May 2011 (EDT)
