Understanding Bar Mitzvah and Bat Mitzvah for Your Ceremony Celebration Invitations
The most common translation of the words 'Bar Mitzvah' is 'son of the commandment', and for 'Bat Mitzvah', it is 'daughter of the commandment'. In the Biblical Hebrew, 'bar' or 'bat' is often known as 'subject to'. Combining these two, some would arrive at a definition of 'subject to commandment'. The plural term for people of obligation is B'nai Mitzvah for males, and B'not Mitzvah for females, when referring to multiple celebrations. However, it is quite common for the terms 'Bar' or 'Bat Mitzvot' to be used. For these religious Mitzvah occasions, you will need to select and customize your Mitzvah invitations for Bar and Bat found exclusively at InvitationsByU.com.

Under the Jewish Law and customs, children are not obligated
to observer the commandments, but they are encouraged to know and observer the
obligations they will be required to observe when they reach adulthood. The
Mitzvah ceremony, whether it is for the boy or girl, is a 'rite of passage';
more or less the crossover from childhood to adulthood. This usually occurs
when a boy reaches 13 years of age and for girls when they reach 12 years of
age, and they are obligated to observer the religious commandments. The Bar
Mitzvah and Bat Mitzvah ceremony and celebration formally signifies their
assumption of these obligations, along with the corresponding expectation and
right to participate in leading religious services, to form binding contracts,
to count in a minivan, to testify before religious courts and to marry.
The Mitzvah boy and girl celebrants usually do lots more
than merely saying the blessing. They are expected to learn the entire
haphtarah portion, including its traditional chant, and recite it during the
ceremony. In some of the more traditional congregations, the celebrant will be
ask to read the entire weekly torah portion, lead the congregation in certain
important prayers, and / or lead part of the service. Additionally, the
celebrant will be given the opportunity to give a talk that traditionally
begins with, 'today I am a man / woman'. The father will then recite a
blessing that thanks God for removing the burden of being responsible for his
son or daughter's sins.
These religious services are usually followed by a Bar
Mitzvah ceremony that can be as formal and elaborate as a wedding reception, so
you will definitely want to ensure your customized Bar Mitzvah invitations are
appropriate for the Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah celebration.
