Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky, a leading authority in the Haredi Jewish society, attends the ceremony of 'pidyon Ha'ben' of his great grandson in the ultra orthodox Jewish neighborhood of Bnei Brak, on August 04, 2014. The ceremony is also known as buying the first born son for five silver coins, and takes place when the baby is 31 days old. The custom is for the father to redeem the baby who must have been born by natural means as he buys the child from a Kohen, a member of the high priests from the ancient temples in Jerusalem, for five silver Shekels. About 30 per cent of the religious male babies born this way go through the festive custom. Photo by Yaakov Naumi/Flash90
