To the uninitiated, a modern-day mikvah looks like a miniature swimming pool. In a religion rich with detail, beauty, and ornamentation — against the backdrop of the ancient Temple or even modern-day synagogues — the mikvahis surprisingly nondescript, a humble structure.
Its ordinary appearance, however, belies its primary place in Jewish life and law. The mikvah offers the individual, the community, and the nation of Israelthe remarkable gift of purity and holiness. No other religious establishment, structure, or rite can affect the Jew in this
Immersion in the mikvah has offered a gateway to purity ever since the creation of man. The Midrashrelates that after being banished from Eden, Adam sat in a river that flowed from the garden. This was an integral part of his teshuvah(repentance) process, of his attempt at return to his original perfection.
