When Jewish boy reaches 13 years of age it is rite of passage

Childbirth for me was. my first rite of passage at the tender age of eighteen. to give love and accept love unconditionally by self-sacrifice not knowing the outcome.
Christianity doesn't have a certain celebration once you reach a certain age like the Jewish do. When we reach a point in our faith, we make profession of faith before the council and then the congregation. It is then that we are invited to join in all the sacraments of the church.
Yes, Max Scherzer had a bar mitzvah, as he was raised in a Jewish family. Celebrating a bar mitzvah is a traditional Jewish rite of passage for boys at the age of 13, marking their coming of age in the Jewish community. Scherzer has spoken about his Jewish heritage in interviews, highlighting its significance in his life.
The answer to this question depends largely on the tradition the witch follows, and the meaning you place on the term "Coming of Age". In many pagan paths male witches "come of age" or are considered old enough to make their own decisions, when they have reached the age of 12 and have gone through a "Rite of Passage". Some Rites of Passage are as simple as "Tending the Yule Fires" and some require "Dream Quests" or physical tests depending as I said above on the tradition they follow. In many pagan paths female witches "come of age" when their menses starts. There are usually "Rites of Passage" for the young women as well, all of varying degrees of difficulty. The other "Coming of Age" for some witches has to do with them coming into their power, which depends on when they start their learning and how dedicated they are to that learning. Many study, not all ever progress to the point where they have true power.
It is a opening passage of the book "When Evils Were Most Free" (George Cabori).
The Jewish rite of passage for boys is called a Bar Mitzvah. This ceremony typically occurs when a boy turns 13 years old and signifies his coming of age, when he is considered responsible for his own religious duties and obligations. During the Bar Mitzvah, the boy usually reads from the Torah in a synagogue service, marking his acceptance into the Jewish community as an adult.
Rites of passage are important because they are the significant events that take place in that persons life. For instance the rites of passage for Christianity are: Birth, coming of age, marriage & death & these are all the stages of Christians life where important events take place.
Tricky, there is no exact translation in French for this expression, but it is "roman d'apprentissage" (or sometimes "roman initiatique" or "roman d'initiation") for books. A typical French classical novel ("roman") in this category is Flaubert's L'éducation sentimentale. Applied to movies, "films d'apprentissage" is not right, "film initiatique" would fit better. But again, it's not just "coming of age" on its own. "Apprentissage" (apprenticeship) or "initiation" (without "roman" or "film") would not be correct either. Maybe "Histoire (story) initiatique" could apply to either books or movies. But the connotation is not the same as English. "Apprentissage" or "initiation" both refer to some kind of usually soft and smooth education process, under an adult's guidance, not a traumatic family or sexual event as is sometimes the case in such English stories. Sometimes "passage à l'âge adulte" is used, but it is very cumbersome, formal, and limited to teenagers becoming young adults. It does not include children who grow out of childhood and suddenly become more mature, but do not become adults, as is sometimes the case in coming of age stories. I think French should use "rite de passage" (rite of passage), which has been used to describe the formal coming of age ceremonies of the early tribes. And it somehow manages to have the word "age" in it... ^-^
