The rabbi's test question
Rabbi Landau decides to visit his shul's junior Hebrew class just before Rosh Hashanah and give them a brief demonstration of blowing the shofar. So holding his shofar clearly in his hand, he enters the classroom.
"Good morning children," he says to them.
"Good morning rabbi," they reply.
"I have an easy question for you," says Rabbi Landau. "Can anyone tell me what they will see in our shul on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur but not at any other time?"
Little Lawrence immediately puts up his hand and replies, "Yes rabbi, I know the answer. It's my mother."
