THE Mikvah

Central to Jewish life are the laws of Taharat Hamishpacha - Family Purity, of which immersion in a Mikvah for married women is an integral part. It is these observances that keep Jewish marriages sacred and enduring to this day. This critical mitzvah has been sustained by Jewish women through the most difficult times of Jewish history and it is our honor and privilege to make this mitzvah available to you today through Melvin J, Berman Hebrew Academy’s luxurious community mikvah.
