LAUGH

Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan was once asked if there are any jokes in teh Talmud, and his response was, “yes, but they’re all old.” The God of Jews, Christians and Muslims has had a sense of humor from the beginning. The second patriarch, fulfilling God’s promise to Abraham is, indeed, named “Laughter,” which transliterated from Hebrew is “Isaac” (see Genesis 21:1-7). Although different senses of humor abound, it is hoped that at least something here can bring you a chuckle if needed. Comments or suggested content: please contact the pastor.
