HOW MOSES GOT THE 10 COMMANDMENTS

God went to the Arabs and said, 'I have Commandments for you that will make your lives better.’ The Arabs asked, 'What are Commandments?’ And the Lord said, 'They are rules for living.’ 'Can you give us an example?’ 'Thou shall not kill.’ 'Not kill? We're not interested..’

So He went to the Africans and said, 'I have Commandments.’ Africans wanted an example, and the Lord said, 'Honour thy Father and Mother.’ 'Father? We don't know who our fathers are. We're not interested.’

Then He went to the Mexicans and said, 'I have Commandments.’ The Mexicans also wanted an example, and the Lord said, 'Thou shall not steal.’ 'Not steal? We're not interested.’

Then He went to the French and said, 'I have Commandments.’ The French too wanted an example and the Lord said, 'Thou shall not commit adultery.’ 'Sacre bleu!!! Not commit adultery. We're not interested.’

Finally, He went to the Jews and said,' I have Commandments.’ 'Commandments?' They said, 'How much are they?’ 'They're free.’ 'We'll take 10.’

Delightfully incorrect, politically speaking.

Joke told by Rabbi Harold S. Kushner who wrote When Bad Things Happen to Good People:
Moses went up Mount Sinai and came back later and gathered the big crowd together for the news.

Okay, okay. I did the best I could. I got Him down to only Ten Commandments but adultery stays in.

Mel Brooks is always welcome on FR and is never politically correct.

Moses was herding sheep near Mt Sinai. He saw a bush that was burning but was not being consumed. As he walked toward the bush to get a closer look a voice came out of the sky. It said, “Moses, remove thy shoes for this is holy ground upon which thou trodeth.”

Moses removed his shoes. But the ground was hot and he hopped up and down crying, “Ow ow!”.

And the Lord said, “Ha ha. Third one this week.”

You forgot someone...

Then He went to the Chinese and said, ‘I have Commandments.’ The Chinese too wanted an example and the Lord said, ‘Thou shall not covet anything that is thy neighbors.’ ‘Not covid neighbor? But we alweady have lab for that.’
