The Moyel and the Leather Worker

The Moyel and the Leather Worker

In the Jewish religion, the ritual specialist who conducts circumcision (“bris”) is called a “moyel”.

So this one moyel works for decades, and saves all his clippings. When he retires, he takes them to a leather worker, and asks if he can make something out of them.

A couple of weeks later, the leather worker calls the moyel in and lays a wallet on the counter.

“What? Sixty years in the trenches and all I get is a wallet?” cries the moyel.

“Rub it. It turns into a suitcase.”
