What’s the Difference Between a Bris and a Baptism?

A christening is traditionally the naming ceremony, and a baptism is the initiation into Christianity through a ritual pouring or immersion of water to cleanse the newborn of original sin. They have since combined them into one ceremony for the little ones. One thing to note is that a baptism, while most commonly performed on an infant, can also be performed on an adult who wants to convert. An infant baptism usually happens within the first few weeks or months of birth.

A bris is a Jewish ceremony where a baby boy receives his Hebrew and secular name and is also circumcised by a mohel in a procedure called brit milah. A bris is performed eight days after birth and can take place in a synagogue or at the home.

Jewish baby girls have a naming ceremony called zeved habat, where the girls’ Hebrew and secular names are announced. The ceremony takes place during a service or at home, and is followed with a reception.
