  "textContent": "Many years ago, a Jew was the most trusted minister to a king.\n\nThe king said, \"Moishe, I would like to make you my prime minister, but the people would not stand for me appointing a Jew, please convert.\"\n\nMoishe agrees, and converts to Christianity, and becomes prime minister.\n\nAfter a few months, he cannot deal with this any more, and with much trepidation, he goes to the king and says, \"My king, I am a Jew, and I cannot be otherwise. Please forgive me, but I must resign from my position and return to the practices of Judaism.\"\n\nThe king understands, and is not angry, and accepts Moishe's decision.\n\nHe then goes home to his wife, and says Shoshana, I am no longer prime minister. I have to be a Jew.\n\nShoshana smacks him on the head, and says, \"Moishe, why couldn't you wait until **AFTER** Passover?\"\n\nMy gentile reader(s) may not get this, but all of my Jewish readers do.\n\nI've been thinking about this joke for the past week or so as our hoshold frantically cleans for Pesach.",
