Is a Jewish Boy Who Was Circumcised in the Hospital Rather Than in a Religious Bris Ceremony Considered a Jew?

Rabbi Don Rossoff

Is a Jewish boy who was circumcised in the hospital rather than in a religious bris ceremony considered a Jew? My husband and I are an interfaith family and we are not sure what to do with our baby.

Interfaith Family

Is it possible to have a child christened and go through a bris/baby naming?

Rabbi Don Rossoff

Honestly, no. What I mean by this is that if you are going to be truly honest with yourself, then, on many levels, you cannot have both a christening and a bris/naming

If our baby is circumcised in the hospital, can the ceremony of a bris still be held?

Rabbi Don Rossoff

If our baby is a little boy and we want to have him circumcised in the hospital can the ceremony of a bris still be held or would we have a baby naming?
