Dans l’usage talmudique, l’âge de treize ans était celui où le jeune homme devenait civilement et pénalement responsable. Le bar-mitsva joue un rôle actif dans l’office de cette fête, en lisant solennellement un passage de la Torah et, s’il le peut, en chantant lui-même tout ou partie de l’office. Il prononce aussi une allocution de circonstance ou, tout au moins, une prière, qui est, en même temps, un engagement à persévérer dans la voie où il s’engage. 1, record 1, French, - bar%2Dmitsva
