What is Circumcision?
Brit Milah: How a simple mitzvah makes a worldwide, eternal impact on the entire Jewish people.
Brit Milah, or circumcision, is performed on a Jewish male eight days after he is born.
The procedure is performed by a mohel – a person who has mastered the set of Jewish laws regarding circumcision and received extensive practical training.
At a Brit Milah, the mohel removes the baby’s foreskin and draws blood from the reproductive organ, after which the baby is given a Jewish name.
