83 B Mitzvah - A Second Chance for a Bar Mitzvah and Bat Mitzvah at 83 Years Old. Yes, It Is True!

What is a 83 B Mitzvah?
It is a second Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah at 83 Years Young. While a second wedding to renew wedding vows is common, most people don't even think of a second Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah at 83. It could even be the first for some.

In the Psalms, King David made mention of the lifespan of that time, which was up to the age of 70. 71 and older was considered as starting over during that time. The math is simple: 70 + 13 = 83. So 83 is the perfect age to become Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah all over again.

Celebrating the Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah, whether it is the first or second time, with the recitation of the Torah in this time honored tradition is a wonderful way to celebrate a full life. What an impression it will have on the grandchildren and great-grandchildren! They will learn that it is never too late for something so important and special.

Is Your Grandson Becoming a Bar Mitzvah or Your Granddaughter Becoming a Bat Mitzvah?
What a special gift from their grandfather or grandmother - reading the same Torah portion as they on their day. Check with your Rabbi at your congregation and request this time honored and special gift from the elder to the grandchild.
