Congregation Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim
Congregation Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim (also known as Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim Synagogue, Congregation K. K. Beth Elohim, or more simply K. K. Beth Elohim), founded in 1749, is one of the oldest Jewish congregations in the United States.〔Jonathan Sarna. ''American Judaism: A History'', Yale University Press, 2004, p. 19.〕 The congregation is nationally significant as the place where Reform Judaism originated. It meets in an architecturally significant 1840 Greek Revival synagogue located at 90 Hasell (pronounced as if it were spelled ''Hazel'') Street in Charleston, South Carolina. It was designed by Cyrus L. Warner.
==History==
In the 1830s, Beth Elohim adopted a reformed ritual, after reabsorbing a splinter group originally led by Isaac Harby. In 1824 he founded the Reformed Society of the Israelites, authoring the first Reform prayer-book in America. The congregation is sometimes considered to be the originator of Reform Judaism in the United States, though it was mainly established by immigrants from Germany later on. Most of the founding members of the congregation were Sephardi Jews of Spanish and Portuguese descent, but some were German Jews.
