Best Answer

The classic synagogue or beis ki-nes-ses (alt: beit kinesset) is specifically a house of prayer. One may not eat, sleep, speak idle chat, conduct business, or even study Torah (not related to the liturgy) in a beis kinesses. Because of these stringencies Buildings are rarely dedicated as an actual beis kinesses, but rather as a house of study or beis medresh (alt: Beit medresh) even though they are primarily used for prayer. -See Code of Jewish law, Orach Chaim s. 150-153

What Jewish ceremony do Jewish boys go through to show that he is a man?

There is no ceremony that a Jewish boy goes through to show that he is a man. A Jewish male is legally an adult at the age of 13. At that time, he can legally enter into contracts, his testimony as a witness is acceptable in a court, he is responsible and accountable for his own choices and actions, and he is known as a "bar mitzvah". That's why his 13th birthday is a big occasion, and some people celebrate it by having him participate in a synagogue service for the first time, and even with a party or a reception. But whether or not there is any celebration, and whether or not the boy or his family are even aware of the occasion, he still attains this legal status when he turns 13.


How do people show that they are Jewish?

well, you can either go out and say " did you know i'm Jewish" (this is the direct way to do so) or you can wait until something of the Jewish spectrum comes up and say " hey speaking about Jews..." but then again you could just say it quietly to someone in private; it depends on the scenario.Answer:We show that we're Jewish by living as Jews.
