Members phkrause Posted April 19, 2016 Members Posted April 19, 2016 In every congregation, there’s always one Jew whose purpose in life is to drive the rabbi meshugge [nuts] forever plaguing him with “deep” questions. Shmuel was one such congregant. “Tell me, Rabbi, why is it that four questions are asked on Passover, but not on Yom Kippur or Rosh Hashanah?” “Oy, Shmuel,” said the Rabbi grimacing. “Look, it’s very simple. To see a Jew wail and moan is not unusual, so who needs to ask questions? But to see a Jew happy – now that demands an explanation!” LadyRachelLynn 1 Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.
