Jewish Divorce

A Jewish woman in a small town out west sued her husband for divorce. He had left her and refused to pay any kind of support for her, she claimed.



The case was presented to the local judge by a Jewish attorney who concluded his petition in the following way: "Your Honor, this good-for-nothing husband is a most undesirable citizen. He drinks like Lot, sins like Haman, and curses like Balaam."



"The divorce is granted," said the judge, "and as for this man's dangerous associates, if they're ever brought into this courtroom, I will personally see to it that they are punished accordingly."
