The Confessional

[teapeebubbles]

A Hebrew teacher stood in front of his class and said,
"The Jewish people have observed their 5,759th year as
a people. Consider that the Chinese, for example, have
only observed their 4,692nd year as a people. Now, what
does it mean to you?"

After a moment of silence, a student raised his
hand.

"Yes, David," the teacher said, "what does it mean?"

David replied, "It means that the Jews had to suffer
without Chinese food for 1,067 years."
