Detailed explanation-1: -At age 13 a boy becomes Bar Mitzvah and at age 13 a girl becomes a Bat Mitzvah. Bar and Bat Mitzvah ceremonies are significant because they are seen as the time of coming of age, when a child becomes an adult. After these ceremonies Jewish boys or girls become responsible for living according to Jewish Law .
Detailed explanation-2: -Yes, it’s possible to have a bar mitzvah at 14, but in most cases, the bar or bat mitzvah is held when the child reaches the age of 13. In some cases, a bar or bat mitzvah may be held when the child is younger or older than 13.
Detailed explanation-3: -This is called the Aliyah, which translates to ascent. In the Aliyah, you read from a section of the Torah. The bar mitzvah boy is referred to here as an Oleh. Those who don’t know Hebrew train beforehand with a rabbi for the reading.
