Tradition of Circumcision

The sacred practice of traditional circumcision was first performed by the Jewish Patriarch Abraham, and the tradition has continued in every generation of Jewish people.

The Torah (Jewish Bible) places the primary obligation of performing the traditional circumcision on the father.

However, if he himself is not a qualified mohel, he then can delegate a qualified mohel to be his agent to perform the traditional circumcision for him.

Today, there are many Jewish children circumcised by the doctor in the hospital two days after birth.

However, our tradition teaches us that the circumcision should be performed on the eighth day and only by a qualified mohel.

This is because a mohel is an expert in the surgical aspects of circumcision as well as knowledgeable in the laws and customs pertaining to a traditional circumcision and ceremony.

In case of an issue regarding the health of the newborn baby, the circumcision is postponed until a week after the child has completely recovered as determined by his physician in consultation with the mohel.

"I have had the occasion of working with Rabbi Boruch Mozes on urological surgery. Rabbi Mozes has impressed me with his professionalism and judgment."
Dr. Howard M. Snyder-a world renowned urological surgeon. Children’s Hospital Of Philadelphia
I am happy to confidently recommend Rabbi Boruch Mozes as an experienced and highly skilled mohel. Many families have been extremely satisfied with his services as a mohel. I wish him continued success.

As both a parent and a medical professional, I was extremely impressed with the Bris that Rabbi Boruch Mozes performed on my son. I have in the past and will continue to recommend him to all as an outstanding mohel.
Dr. Isaac Braverman Pediatrician NJ

When our third son was born on a Shabbos and the mohel that we had used for our previous two sons was going to Israel, I was concerned. Rabbi Mozes made the several hour trip to our community and spent Shabbos away from his family so that the bris could be performed on the proper day. He was highly qualified and his manner was reassuring. I would recommend Rabbi Mozes to any family desiring an experienced and skilled mohel for the circumcision of their son.
