A bar mitzvah is a male who is old enough to be considered an adult as far as Jewish law is concerned. The youngest person to be called an adult in the Torah was Jacob's son Levi, who was called a man at age 13 (Genesis 34:25). From this Judaism established that age as being the age of a bar mitzvah.
