no. There is a different system for presenting the Jewish male child; it is circumcision. This happens on the eighth day of the child's life. At that time, he is given his Hebrew name, which may be different than the given name in the community.
The commandment is given in Genesis, when God said that all males in Abraham's household were to be circumcised, beginning with the child of eight days. Abraham was faithful and circumcised himself and all his male household at that time.
Answerno because Jewish people do not believe that Jesus Christs was actually the Lord's Son. Jewish Answer The first 'answer' is wrong.There is no equivalent to a baptism in Judaism as there is no need for such a ceremony from the Jewish perspective. According to the teachings of Judaism, we are born good and innocent and there is no such thing as original sin.
The circumcision ceremony is a part of confirming our covenant with HaShem. Since baby girls are not circumcised, most Jews have a baby naming ceremony where the community is told her Hebrew name and friends have family have the opportunity to wish the baby mazel tov (good luck).

Both like to play in their backyard. Children are children, no matter where they grow up. They like to smile and laugh and play games. Jewish children and Palestinian children are no different from one another. It is when they mature and develop unique perspectives that they start to diverge.

Why did some Jews convert to Christianity?
I dont know what era or year your refering to, but generally Jewish and Christianity share the same story of creation and we both follow the old testament. The Torah is based on the old testament in the Bible. So we arn't we off, the only difference is that Christians believe that Jesus was the chosen on, Jewish are still waiting for the chosen one. So i guess Jewish convert to Christianity because we are probably the closest considering we share the same roots.
