Coming home: 65-year-old hidden Jew celebrates his bar mitzvah feature Coming home: 65-year-old hidden Jew celebrates his bar mitzvah After being kept in the dark for years, it was difficult for Robert Powell to grasp the disclosure … how something so evident, like one’s religion and identity, became a well-kept family secret. By Batya (Schochet) Lisker (March 12, 2021 / Chabad.org/News) “My family were hidden Jews, but not anymore. With this coming of age ritual, I’m proudly reclaiming my Jewish heritage,” said Robert Powell, a 65-year-old Wisconsinite about his recent bar mitzvah at Chabad of Mequon, Wis. His mother and her sister were raised in Hamburg, Germany. They were fortunate to flee in 1939 shortly before Poland fell to the Nazis, but not before the escalating persecution of Jews was woven into the fabric of their childhood. They experienced things that no children ever should. Anxiety and fear were encoded in their genes and became part of their psyche.
