Plans for an organized Jewish community around Cleveland began in 1922, when three members of the community decided to create a Hebrew school for Bolivar County.[1] Working with a Rabbi out of Greenville, Mississippi, they held classes in the Cleveland Consolidated School.[1] This developed into a desire for religious services for Jews within a 50-mile radius of Cleveland. Services were originally held in a local high school auditorium, with Rabbi Rabinowitz from Greenville coming up to lead services. Between 1926 and 1927, congregants raised money to build a synagogue. The Temple was dedicated on February 6, 1927.[1]
At one point, Adath Israel had one of the largest temple youth groups in Mississippi.[3]
Today, Temple Adath Israel has a congregation of about 18-22 families.[1][4]
