Early American Mikva’ot: Ritual Baths as the Hope of Israel This chapter originally appeared as an article in the journal Religion in the Age of Enlightenment 1 (2009): 109–45, and I am grateful to the editors for allowing it to be reprinted here. The article would not have been possible without the help and/or suggestions of the following people: Eric Leibman, Karl Watson, Jonathan Sarna, Gail Sherman, Lily Duym, Myrna C. Moreno, Rabbi Kenneth Brodkin, R. Grant Gillmore III, Rebbetzin Devora Wilhelm, Abraham W. Rosenberg, Philip Dikland, Bert Lippincott III, Kent Coupé, Barbara Siegel, Jodi Schorb, Margot Mindari, Aviva Ben-Ur, and Rachel Frankel. I am also indebted to resources or people at the following museums and archives: Jewish Cultural Historical Museum (Curaçao), Ets Haim Library (Amsterdam), Joods Historisch Museum (Amsterdam), Centro Cultural Judaico Pernambuco (Brazil), AJHS Archives (New York), Newport Historical Society, SECAR, and Mikveh Shoshana (Oregon). Funding for research done for this article and my book, Messianism, Secrecy and Mysticism : A New Interpretation of Early American Jewish Life ( London and Portland, OR : Vallentine Mitchell, 2012) more broadly was provided by the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Mellon Foundation, Stillman Drake and Ruby Lankford Grants, and Reed College. Any mistakes are of course my own.
