Grade 6 Responsibilities of Bar/Bat mitzvah

Hello world it is me ethant36 today I will be talking about the responsibilities of becoming a Bar/Bat Mitzvah.

When you become Bar or Bat mitzvah, you become a Jewish adult. You have to become responsible for your actions, honor the old community members, honor your parents, not take revenge, not shame other people, help your neighbor in need, not talk badly about someone and give tzedakah to the poor. The religious responsibilities include

  • You can be in a minyan (a group of 10 males that is needed to recite certain prayers or any people over the age of bar mitzvah in less religious communities)
  • Keep Shabbat (Don’t work)
  • Keep Kosher
  • Fast on Yom Kippur
  • Light the shabbat candles (Usually women)
  • You can have an aliyah

Innovation day reflection

For Innovation Day we were tasked with making a cool game using electricity and circuits. We had to do research, build a game, write a script and make a tri-fold board. Before the big day, I was getting nervous because my script was not done. Writing the script was one of the hardest parts of the whole project for me and choosing what game to choose out of so many choices was also really hard. We ended up choosing a don’t touch the wire game. If I could do this project again, I would take more time to write the script and more time to choose a game. Here is a picture of me, my partner, my board and my game:

I enjoyed innovation day and learned a lot about electricity and circuits. Building the game was really fun.

 

 

 

3 Meaningful Mitzvot

Hello world it is me ethant36 today  I will be showing you my mitzvah project.

Here are my paragraphs:

Mitzvah #1

לֹֽא־תִקֹּ֤ם וְלֹֽא־תִטֹּר֙ אֶת־בְּנֵ֣י עַמֶּ֔ךָ וְאָֽהַבְתָּ֥ לְרֵעֲךָ֖ כָּמ֑וֹךָ אֲנִ֖י יְהֹוָֽה”׃”

“You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against members of your people. Love your fellow [Israelite] as yourself: I am the lord.” (Leviticus 19:18)

This mitzvah (Leviticus 19:18) teaches us about loving all Jews. There is no point going around hating your own people when you could be loving them. Life is too short to focus on hatred.  This reminds us not to hold grudges.

This mitzvah also reminds us to love people that have done something bad and forgive them. If there were no love in the world might as well not live at all.

This mitzvah can impact my life and the lives of others because with no love everyone would be unhappy. If you got mad at your friend and never made up then you are holding a grudge. Also, both people would have lost their friend.

Mitzvah #2

 

“I will set up a prophet for them from among their brothers like you, and I will put My words into his mouth, and he will speak to them all that I command him. I will set up a prophet for them from among their brothers like you, and I will put My words into his mouth, and he will speak to them all that I command him.” “נָבִ֨יא אָקִ֥ים לָהֶ֛ם מִקֶּ֥רֶב אֲחֵיהֶ֖ם כָּמ֑וֹךָ וְנָֽתַתִּ֤י דְבָרַי֙ בְּפִ֔יו וְדִבֶּ֣ר אֲלֵיהֶ֔ם אֵ֖ת כָּל־אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲצַוֶּֽנּוּ:” (Deuteronomy 18:11)

This mitzvah (Deuteronomy 18:11) teaches us not to attempt to talk to dead people.

The meaning of this mitzvah is to let go because once someone is dead they are dead. There is no point going crazy to talk to someone who is just dead. 

G-d says  not to get advice or power from spirits, magic, or fortune-telling. He says to trust him for guidance. Back then, people would try to talk to the dead, use spells or try to tell the future. G-d told them not to because it leads them away from him. He wants us to get wisdom from him instead.

Mitzvah #3

The mitzvah I have selected is…Not to destroy objects associated with His Name—Deuteronomy 12:4 “לֹא־תַֽעֲשׂ֣וּן כֵּ֔ן לַֽיהֹוָ֖ה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶֽם: “You shall not do so to the Lord, your God.” 

This mitzvah tells us not to destroy objects that have G-d’s name in it.

I think this mitzvah is important because objects that contain G-d’s name should be holy and not be destroyed.

This mitzvah can impact my life and the lives of others because not destroying things is good in general but it is worse to destroy an object with G-d’s name in it
