The first mention of Jews in Hawaii was in 1798, when a sailor on board the whaler, recorded that the Hawaiian king came aboard and brought "a Jew cook with him". Jewish traders from England and Germany arrived in Hawaii in The 1840's. Jews from California arrived at the end of The 1800's. In 1901, The Hebrew Benevolent Society and a Jewish cemetery were established. In 1938, the Honolulu Jewish community was formed. Since 1951, synagogues have been established including Chabad synagogues. There is also a constant arrival of Jewish immigrants from the American mainland.
