Bar/Bat Mitzvah: The Truth You Were Never Told: The Meaning of Mitzvah

For many, a Bar or Bat Mitzvah is a coming-of-age ceremony, marked by tradition, celebration, and ritual. But beneath the surface lies a question few can answer: What does it really mean?

In Bar/Bat Mitzvah: The Truth You Were Never Told, the author reveals how this sacred milestone has become a hollowed-out ritual for many, celebrated reflexively without understanding its spiritual depth.
