1. The tale is told of an old American Jewish couple who went on holiday to Israel. Tragically, while they were there, the wife passed away. The husband had to make arrangements for her body, so spoke to a local undertaker. "For us to transport your wife's body back to your home in the US, it will cost you $10,000. However, alternatively we can bury her here in Jerusalem for a cost of $1,500. The choice is up to you." The old man said, "That's quite a significant difference in price!" He thought for a while, then said to the undertaker, "I think I will have to pay the $10,000 to send her back to the US. You know, a long time ago, a man was buried in Jerusalem. After 3 days he came back to life. I'm not taking any chances."
