Par2: Finklestein & Jesus 2006-04-12 -- A.N. Other > Jesus was wandering around Jerusalem
> when He decided that He really needed a new robe.
> After looking around for a while,
> He saw a sign for Finkelstein, the Tailor.
> So, He went in and made the necessary arrangements
> to have Finkelstein prepare a new robe for Him.
> A few days later, when the robe was finished,
> Jesus tried it on and it was a perfect fit !
> He asked how much He owed. Finkelstein brushed him off:
> "No, no, no, for the Son of God? There's no charge !
> However, may I ask for a small favor ?
> Whenever you give a sermon,
> perhaps you could just mention
> that your nice new robe
> was made by Finkelstein, the Tailor ? "
> Jesus readily agreed and as promised,
> extolled the virtues of His Finkelstein robe
> whenever He spoke to the masses.
> A few months later,
> while Jesus was again walking through Jerusalem,
> He happened to walk past Finkelstein's shop
> and noted a huge line of people
> waiting for Finkelstein's robes.
> He pushed his way through the crowd
> to speak to him and as soon as Finkelstein spotted Him
> he said: "Jesus, Jesus, look what you've done for my business !
> Would you consider a partnership ? "
> "Certainly," replied Jesus. "Jesus & Finkelstein it is."
> "Oh, no, no," said Finkelstein. "Finkelstein & Jesus.
> After all, I am the craftsman."
> The two of them debated this for some time.
> Their discussion was long and spirited, but ultimately fruitful
> and they finally came up with a mutually acceptable compromise.
> A few days later, the new sign went up over Finkelstein's shop.

> Can you guess what it read ??
