A Joke to Start the Week - "Yizkor Miracle"

 

It's another Monday, and time for another Joke to Start the Week. Today's joke teller is Rabbi Jack Engel, spiritual leader of Anshei Emuna Congregation, a modern Orthodox shul in Delray Beach, Florida.

Rabbi Jack and his wife Miriam have brought a fresh approach to serving the needs of the Anshei Emuna community. 

They have reinvigorated Anshei Emuna in the ten+ years they have been at the shul. The experiences gleaned from serving in pulpits in South Africa, Australia and New Zealand have enhanced their ability to address the diversities of their Jewish community.

They are advocates of a modern Orthodoxy, that is open minded yet adheres to the integrity of Halacha.

While the shul has been closed because of the coronavirus outbreak, Rabbi Jack has been leading a 45 minute topical discussion via Zoom on weekdays that attracts attendees from the U.S., Canada, Israel, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. And he can also tell a good joke.

Here's the setup: Two young men, a Chasid and a learned non-Chasidic scholar wanted to go into business together. So they decided to open a shul. And then...

Enjoy!
