Testimonials
Bris Milah
The word Bris means covenant; the word Milah, to circumcise.
Hashem (G-d) commanded Avraham, Judaism’s founding father, to circumcise himself and all male children born to his offspring. Avraham was the first person in history to perform a Bris Milah, he even circumcised himself.
Circumcision is the forging of a blood pact between Hashem and the Jewish people.
