Now

Once, Hershele was selling antiques and trinkets in the market. Among his wares was a large canvas, that was entirely blank. A customer asked Hershele what it was, and Hershele replied:- “For a silver ruble, I will tell you about this painting. (The man, overwhelmed by curiosity, gives him a silver ruble). Well, this painting is a famous painting, The Jews Pursued by the Egyptians Crossed the Red Sea.”-“Well, where are the Jews?”- “They’ve crossed.”- “And the Egyptians?”- “Haven’t come yet.”- (Getting frustrated at having been duped) “And where’s the Red Sea?!”- “It’s parted, dummkopf!”
