Ten Commandments

First the Lord went to see the Egyptians and he asked If they wanted a commandment.

“What’s a commandment?” they asked, “If it is something like: ‘NO ADULTERY’?Impossible! That would ruin the weekends,” they answered.

Then the Lord went to see the Syrians and He asked if they wanted a commandment.

“What’s a commandment?” they asked, “If it is something like:  ‘THOU SHOULD NOT STEAL’  No way! It would ruin our economy!”  they replied.

Finally, The Lord came to the Jews. He went to ask them if they wanted a commandment.

“How much is one?” they quickly asked.

“They are free!” The Lord replied.

“Great! We'll take ten!”
