THE THIEF
Murray, a deeply religious man, went to temple one Sabbath and forgot his Tallit, so he
borrowed one from, "the rack," at the temple. At the end of the service, he
realized that he really liked this Tallit, so much that against his better judgment, he
decided to stuff it down the front of his trousers and take it home.
After the service when he was walking through the reception line, the Rabbi stopped him
and whispered,
"Murray, I am sorry but, I saw you stuff the Tallit down your pants. Why did you
do this?"
Murray, embarrassed and ashamed, explained the situation, whereas the Rabbi suggested he
remove it from his trousers and give it back to the Rabbi.
During this time, the Tallit had slid half way down his leg. While Murray was bent over
pulling the Tallit out of his pant leg, he accidentally let out a loud fart.
The Rabbi, exasperated, said; "Murray!... You took the Shofar too?!"
