been a catchy new label invented since then, I don't know.

I would estimate that this ritual has been performed for about 3000 years.Answer:Actually, Mitzva has two meanings, not one. Generically, it can be used to include any good deed; but specifically it means any one of the Torah's commands.
Why are certain prayers required at bar mitzvahs?
The only text that's uniquely associated with a bar mitzvah celebration is a brief blessing recited by the father of the bar mitzvah boy. It's actually available in two forms. Depending on the father's confidence in his ability to read Hebrew, he can select the short form of the blessing, which consists of five words, or the long form, which runs to nine words. Anything else that you might hear pronounced or recited exclusively at a service where a bar mitzvah is celebrated will be a modern innovation, added in recent times in order to spiff it up and make it seem more unusual and special. Except for the father's brief blessing, there are no special prayers "required" at the bar mitzvah service.
How long does a Bar Mitzvah ceremony take?
