Morris and his Rabbi
Morris goes to the rabbi and says, ‘I committed a sin and I want to know what I can do to repent.‘
‘What was the sin?‘ the rabbi asked.
‘It happened just once,‘ Morris assures him. ‘I didn‘t wash my hands and recite the blessing before eating bread.‘
‘Nu, if it really only happened once,‘ the rabbi said, ‘that‘s not so terrible. Nonetheless, why did you neglect to wash your hands and recite the blessing?‘
‘I felt awkward Rabbi,‘ said Morris. ‘You see, I was in an un-kosher restaurant.‘
The rabbi‘s eyebrows arch. ‘And why were you eating in an un-kosher restaurant?‘
‘I had no choice,‘ Morris said. ‘All the kosher restaurants were closed.‘
‘And why were all the kosher restaurants closed?‘ the rabbi asked.
Morris replied, ‘It was Yom Kippur.‘
