Mitzvah
by DethKnot on Mar 15, 2017 17:27:45
Similar to a yoke in a sence that like to an ox it's a way of guiding somebody to do good with their life. It would be popularly marketed with something like #
mitzvah and @
superjew, it's basically a good deed but with more value to the soul. Also mentioned constantly in the Jewish world alongside words like
Hashem, kosher, Bernie, and Wall Street.
Example:
Already have too much money? Do a
mitzvah! Donate to some random charity!
It was fun to volunteer with my yeshivah for the local homeless shelter! #mitzvah #BaruchHashem #BecauseWeAreLakewoodSoWeAre etterThanAll
Those people from
Lakewood think they are so great because they worked for a rushed hour to help the homeless while shitting on any other organization that helped out even though they put WAY more effort! Why don't they do the mitzvah of learning to STFU!

(v)-to forcibly induce celebration on another
(v)-mit-tah-zah-fah: to throw people up in the air on a chair. not to be confused with extreme
duck duck goose, where the person would be tied to the chair and the people, running with the chair on their shoulders towards a
bubbling couldron, would be yelling, "
stew pot stew pot...!"

Bar Mitzvah
by Heather M on Oct 12, 2005 10:04:26
A coming-of-age ceremony in the Jewish religion. When a boy turns thirteen, he is considered a man and reads a
torah portion in front of friends, family and his
shul. Bat Mitzvahs, the counterpart for 13-year-old girls, started in the early 20th century. Bar and Bat Mitzvahs are really supposed to be holy ceremonies that mark a child's
emergence into the
adult world of Judiasm, but in some parts of the US the parties are all that matters. Yes, it's very important for each young teen to out-do each other. Whether it's having expensive DJ's or balloon arches, invitees of Bar/Bat Mitvahs know they will have a great time and end up with a giveaway, like a t-shirt or pj pants with a cheesy saying. (Read: "I danced my pants off at Lauren's
Bat Mitzvah!") For young teens that are or know Jewish teens, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs are the social highlights of the 7th and 8th grades.
