Do you have Jewish friends or family who have invited you to a “Brit Milah” or “Bris” – circumcision ceremony and you don’t know what to expect? Traditionally Jewish boys are circumcised on the 8th day after birth unless there is a problem with the baby’s health. At the circumcision ceremony the baby is given his Hebrew name and the short ceremony is followed by a meal. In the US many people hold the ceremony at home, but in Israel the ceremony is often held in a synagogue or even a wedding hall with a festive meal. I was recently at a Brit of a Sephardic friend of mine whose parents are Kurdish and Moroccan. After the ceremony the grandfather of the baby sat in a special chair and gave blessings to those who attended the brit. People went up to him and asked him to bless them for good health, job security, or whatever. I thought that was pretty cool.

During the past twenty years “Simchat Bat” parties or baby naming ceremonies of Jewish girls have become popular. Everybody knows that Jewish male babies have a circumcision ceremony often accompanied by a festive meal for family and /or friends, but what about girl babies? Now it is very popular to have a party in honor of the girl. Usually the baby’s name is announced the Shabbat after she is born when the father or parents go up for an Aliyah in the synagogue. When our daughter Noa was born, we had a festive meal in our home and my husband and I gave a “D’var Torah” and explained why we chose the name that we did.
