This is a story about a popular young Rabbi, who on Sabbath Eve
announces to his congregation that he will not renew his contract. He explains that he must move on to a larger congregation that will pay him more. There is a hush. No one wants him to leave.
Sol Epstein, who owns several car dealerships in the City stands up and proclaims: "If the Rabbi stays, I will provide him with a new
Cadillac every year and his wife with a Honda mini-van to transport their children!"
The congregation sighs in appreciation, and applauds.
Sam Goldstein, a successful entrepreneur and investor , stands and
says: If the Rabbi will stay on here, I'll personally double his salary, and
also establish a foundation to guarantee the college education's of all
his children!!" More sighs and loud applause.
Sadie Goldfarb, age 88, stands and announces with a smile, "If the
Rabbi stays, I vill give him sex!"
There is total silence. The Rabbi,
blushing, asks her: "Mrs. Goldfarb, whatever possessed you to say that?"
Sadie's 90 year old husband Jacob is now trying to hide, holding his
forehead with the palm of his hand and shaking his head from side to
side while his wife replies: "Well, I just asked my husband how we could
help, and he said, "F**k the Rabbi"
