for everyone who had difficulty understanding this joke
the sermon is usually extremely long and possibly boring.
Sometimes (irl) a rabbi (or a pastor or a priest or any kind of preacher) will take his watch off their wrist. if he puts it away, it means he is not worried about time so you are in for a long sermon. Sometimes though they would put it on the podium (or lecturer or whatever you call that thingy that stands up where you can put your books and notes to read during the sermon) so that he can glance at it and keep the time under control. This usually means a shorter sermon or at the very least a sermon that ends when it is supposed to end instead of trickling down into eternity.
So the punchline is just a small subversion. Everything they do has a meaning so you would expect that when the rabbi takes off his watch and put it up in a way that's perfectly visible while he speake it would mean that he intends to keep the sermon short. ...yeah, good luck with that.
Thank you for your service.
@@SoulWords sorry, I know you don't explain the joke but I read about 50 very confused comments about what the punchline should have been.
What’s hilarious is that the reason this short went viral and has now over 2 million views is partially because so many people did not get the joke. The algorithm loves outrage. People who watch a joke and are annoyed that the set up was too long and the punchline was unsatisfying are more engaged than people who laugh! I didn’t do this on purpose of course but it’s fascinating to see how this unintentional “rage bait” went viral.
Lectern
I thought taking off his his watch meant the rabbi was going to smack the guy talking.
"I wandered 40 years in the desert for that punchline? Oy-vey!"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂👍👍
Let me explain, rabbis tend to go on and on and on. The context of this clip is that it’s a lecture to speechwriters. My guess is the speakers lesson is about brevity
Exactly... 20 seconds would have been fine.
Love it! I once was listening to a guest preacher giving a sermon, and when someone signaled him that he was reaching the end of his allotted time limit, he said "I know my time's almost up. Can I get five more minutes? Who here will give me five more minutes?" A bunch of people raised their hands, and hebstarted pointing at them, saying "that's five, ten, fifteen, twenty..."
That’s very good
Son of a... now i understood the joke.
My great grandfather on my mother's side used to say, "in my sixty years as a pastor, I never knew of a soul being saved by keeping them past 12." He was a Methodist.
My great grandfather on my father's side served as a pastor in the Baptist Church. He had no such saying.
Lol the typo hebstarted

A preacher graduated from Bible school and was so excited to preach at church.
He got assigned to a little church on the prairie. His first Sunday there was a blizzard and only one rancher shows up. So he asked the rancher “should I preach, since there’s only u ?”
The rancher says, I’m no biblical scholar or theologian, but if I had a cow show up for feeding on a day like this, id sure feed it.
Preacher says ok here goes.
1hr and a half later he asks the rancher
How’d I do ?
Rancher says I’m no theologian or scholar but If I went to feed my herd on a day i like this and only one showed up
I wouldn’t feed it the whole load

A rabbi and a Catholic priest sit down to lunch. The priest says "Tell me, Rebbe, did you ever break kosher and have a bit of ham?"
The rabbi says "Once, when I was young and curious, I decided to try it. Now you, padre, did you ever, ah, with a woman?"
The priest blushes and says "Once, before I was ordained."
They sit together in silence for a bit, then the rabbi smiles a little and says "Better than ham, isn't it?"

Much better punchine to that really long joke.
Thats actually a punchline, at least.
This long-setup, pointless-punchline is a format that only works in front of a crowd, because it isn't funny. An audience in this situation, is going to register "oh, response; joke, yeah. Ha," whereas an individual would say "wh- holy shit, was that a joke?"

A Jewish man is speaking to his friend and says
"Man, I've done a terrible thing"

The Jewish man answers
"Oh no , you don't understand, I made them pay rent"
The friend replys
"That's not terrible either"

A Jewish man was distraught that his son had converted to Christendom and so he went to his rabbi "Rabbi, you'll never believe this, my son has converted to Christianity. I need your help."
"My friend, you'll never believe this, but my son has recently converted as well. It is my belief that we should pray and ask the Lord for the answers."
And so they both began to pray with as much fervor as they could muster, and who should come from down on high but the Lord himself.
"My sons, you will never believe this..."
Nice 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This had to come out of a Greek Orth. Church
Ha I heard this one too, except they all started with "Let me tell you..."
It means he's not worried about time and that this is going to be a long one.
I think its the opposite not in a bad way but hes timed out his sermon but has it there for banter with the crowd if thats allowed
I thought it was going to be something like that. Or a joke about it being a very expensive/cheap watch and not wanting to appear before God wearing it. Or... something. But it ended up being a non-joke. *shrug*
I was wondering, is this even allowed on Shabbat, to unfasten a watch? Or arguably to wear a watch with a battery at all on Shabbat?
I'm Jewish by law, Bar Mitzvah in a Conservative setting, raised in a non-practicing household (1st American in the family returning to some level of practice), so please forgive me if I'm misinformed!
@lekeAchgeketum I have no idea, but being a keen observer of people, this is my take, regardless of even language or what is discussed.
@leke depends on who you ask. Some Christians and Rabbis will say "do no work" means "do nothing related to your job/career" and "rest" Just means "relax and have some fun/pleasure."
Other leaders, typically of the more heavily conservative bent theologically will give you a five mile list of all the things you aren't allowed to do

Reminds me of the joke with a similar punchline. A priest and a rabbi attend a boxing match together. They're sit close to the ring. They watch as both boxers enter and stand by their corners. Right as the bell rings, the rabbi notices that one of the boxers crosses himself before starting this fight.

So they talk to the Jewish guy and say, "you need to become Catholic so you'll be part of the community." So he says, OK.

That Friday, the Jewish guy is out back cooking steaks and the Catholics come by and say, "no, no, no, its fish only on Fridays."

Shortly after receiving his Holy Orders, a new priest was sent to a parish to be mentored by an older priest. During his first mass, he watched the older priest come out, set down his glass of water and begin.
Afterwards, the new priest asks, "why did you have a glass of water?"
"Well i get thirsty, but it's not water, it's vodka. Anyway, just be prepared because next week, you're up"
So the next week, the new priest comes to the lectern, sets down his vodka, and begins.
Later he priest asks how he did and the older priest says "you did fine son, but i do have a few notes. First, sip your vodka, don't gulp it. Next, it's Jesus Christ, not 'the late J.C.', and finally, David slew Goliath, he didn't 'kick the shit out of him'"
Most people didn't get the subtlety of this joke because they are unfamiliar with the ways of orthodox Judaism. That religious strain has so many rituals by which to live your life that the Jewish explainer in the joke was sorry (c.f.

Others may find it strange, but sermons/speeches are my favorite part of the service. Prayers are hard. They go fast, and most of them are in Hebrew. These days I can usually keep up, but it requires tremendous concentration. During a sermon I can relax and maybe even hear an interesting story..

@@tobybigham4196 do you recite or follow the Hebrew text of the prayers, or do you mostly listen to the sounds of them?
I always recite or at least follow the text, but it's not easy because they go really fast on a lot of the prayers.
There is also the Amida, which you recite to yourself. I can read it but very slowly. On Shabbat they recite it 4 times. As each attendee completes reciting it, they sit down, and I'm always the last one standing LOL. I never finish it, because by the time I'm halfway through, they're onto the next prayer. The Rabbi said I should just keep going at my own pace and complete it regardless, but it's impossible to concentrate when they're singing something else.. Maybe I should bring earplugs or something!
Punchline needs work. Id suggest his wrist is sweaty

You get farther with a sense of humour than with fire and brimstones.
Unfortunately the reality of hell is real and ignoring it will only lead more people there. Would you rather humor people directly to hell or scare people into heaven?
I don't think there is any fire & brimstone in Judaism.
@@stevejoshua9536 Judaism is the teachings of Ha Shatan though......
@@dodibenabba525 Oh, really??? Elaborate, please!!!...
@@freehermanjose5816 Judaism is a religion, ALL religions are owned by Ha Shatan. Judaism is pagan and the religion of the Pharisees. Messiah Himself told you they were the synagogue of Satan. Repent and be baptised in the name of the Great I AM, Ahayah Asher Ahayah, receive the Ruach Ha Kodesh and be taught and led by the ONLY Elohiym, Our Heavenly Father. 👆🙌
I once tried a Spanish Pentecostal church. I asked my friend after a couple hours, how long does the service last? She said, as long as the Holy Spirt says. Lol....the holy spirit said about 3 1/2 hours that day
That’s funnier than the joke I told
You STAND on the podium, you STAND behind the lectern!
Duly noted. Thank you.
You emphasized the wrong words.
Podium is also a _synonym_ for lectern.
Lutheran here. When I was growing up, the minister had an alarm clock set on his podium. We hardly ever went over half an hour of sermon.
"It means Spurs are the early game today and he doesn't want to miss kick off"
not many will get this
I thought he's going to say that it's going to be a long sermon or something along those lines.
He did...
Took me a minute.😂
I grew up Church of England. My Grandfather was a minister and asked him the same thing after one Sunday service. His reply was, "so I know how long I've been talking and know when to stop!"
Will never get those 45 seconds back ever again
This is universal to all faiths.
Judaism isn't a faith to be lumped in with religions. It's a relationship with G-d.
thats a long walk for a bad joke... guess you wont be hitting the comedy clubs anytime soon
It had all the formal elements of a joke, setup, iteration and so forth.
I like how the comment page turned into a joke book
...It means that the Rabbi wants to get home in time to watch the playoffs on TV.
It would have been fun to go meta with the punchline.
"Oh, he puts the watch right in front of him so he can subtly check how long he's been telling a joke."
Norm would be proud of you
that joke took so long it became a grandad joke
Really goes to show that some things are true across many faiths.
I was expecting a time reference. Something like "He is keeping track of time. He has a bris to perform and he doesn't want to rush it."
You might expect, seeing the watch on the podium, that the rabbi would be keeping to a reasonable time limit. Unfortunately, from someone who has been to the service many times, we learn that it is no such predictor.
Git the whole squad laughing 😐
When i heard it, the punchline was: "so he knows when to wrap it up for lunch"
My favourite jewish joke:
3 rabbis meet in a coffeeshop. They argue about their views and interpretation of their fate. The 1st Rabbis friends tell him to ask god if he is so sure.
That day he heads to the tallest mountain nearby.
"God... if I'm right give me a sign" he says as suddenly thousands of birds swarm out of a tiny blueberry bush. Satisfied he goes home.
The next day all 3 meet again and the Rabbi tells the other 2 about the sign.
"Well that's just nature they probably were scared of you talking or in some hole hiding under the bush" says his 1st friend. So the Rabbi heads back up that day, it was quite sunny so he was drenched when he was finally up.
"God if I'm right give me another sign!" He says as the clear sunny sky suddenly darkened with pitch black clouds the rain pouring down. He again goes home to meet his friends the next day.
He tells his friends what happened. "Well that could be due to the heat either you imagined that or it got so hot that it started thundering causing this irdinary weather phenomonon".
The rabbi is now annoyed. "fine then we all go now" he says taking his friends to the mountain.
He starts again "God if-" he gets interrupted
"FOR MY SAKE HE IS CORRECT!!!" a booming voice thunders from all around them.
The two friends of the rabbi startwhisperung with eachother as the 1st Rabbi smirks confidently.
They finally stop when they both say in unison "fine 2 vs 2".
I think the joke is that the sermon is gonna be long
Why doesn't he say goy?
As much as jews despise goyim they dont want them to know so they say "non-jew"
The punchline is true of Christian preachers, too! I grew up Southern Baptist and worked as the choir director for about a decade... Only two things I ever saw that got a Baptist preacher to pay attention to time: When the service was televised and they had to wrap up by noon or get cut for time, or when there was food after the service!
Podium is what you stand on, lectern is what you put your watch on.
Wow they should really have chopped a chunk of this joke off at birth
Hey, at least give it about a week or so.
Lmao
shouldve put his watch on the podium
That was the lamest joke ive heatd in a long time. Thanks for that. Loo
My brain rotted attempting to laugh at the joke
Good delivery at the end .
An Orthodox New York rabbi is preparing to perform a circumcision, first he dons his robes,then says a couple prayers, and finally, brushes his teeth.
You misspelled "my mother"
As a person whos parents came to the US from a country with a large muslim population I used to be not very fond of the jewish community but i recently started to open up and learn more about Judaism. I hope to all that you prosper and be healthy שלום אויף דיר
Charging by minute that can not be timed
People here complaining about long setup like not most jewish jokes(not jew jokes) have a long setup
I was expecting something a little more ironic, something along the lines of, ^That means the Cantor has forgotten the words."
So write and share your own joke. Sounds like you want to.
@@nomorecensoringme I'm just spoiled by exposure to a superior form of wit. Here's an example of a master: Obama explaining, "My first name is 'Barack," which means, 'blessed,' ; my middle name is 'Hussein,' which means nobody ever thought I'd be running for President."
@@georgedunn320I don’t even get that
Yeah real superior wit
"I was raised by a Jewish mother and Christian father and, when I was young, they asked me if I'd rather celebrate Christmas or Hanukkah. Like any good Jew I chose Christmas because you get more presents"
- General Sam
Hilarious, the kind of joke Norm MacDonald loved telling. Subtle enough that you have to think about it for a moment to connect the punchline.
It means this speech is beyond time and can take a while
I think this is what you call a "shaggy dog story". Here's a suggested rewrite:
Once, a non-Jew asked his Jewish friend to take him to the synagogue. On a Saturday morning, during Sabbath Services, the non-Jewish friend asked about various customs and their meanings.
The non-Jew inquired, "What does it mean when everyone stands up, steps three steps backward, and then three steps forward?" The Jewish friend replied, "That's the standing prayer, a key part of our service."
Later, the non-Jewish friend asked about opening the Ark with the Torah Scrolls inside. The Jewish friend explained, "We keep the Torah Scrolls there, and they will be read publicly."
Lastly, the non-Jewish friend asked about the rabbi taking off his watch and placing it on the podium before the sermon. To this, the Jewish friend replied, "Unfortunately, that doesn't mean a darn thing!"
i had to think for a second there but i got it
He wants all the members to know that he got the 10k Rolex for 8k, and their dues are being spent wisely.
That's not funny
@@nomorecensoringme sorry
Good one Aaron!
@@aarongusel442 Clearly @whoknew770 isn't Jewish. Because my friends reading this comment are dying! Real Jews can joke freely about themselves and usually tell the best jokes!!
@@tobybigham4196 and you'd be wrong.
It means he’s a lawyer and you’re all on the clock 😂
Simple, It means he wants to see how long he has been speaking for.
Do you know how the Grand Canyon was created ? A Jew dropped a nickel down a gopher hole !
Your gonna be there awhile
I know lying is a sin and all but as a non-jew, I would have lied to the guy and said "well, that watch is considered an affectation and all affectations are to be removed; we technically should all be nude but the synagogue couldn't get a license because at least one person in the synagogue is a previously convicted felon"
That’s way better than the real punchline.
@@SoulWordsdon't dis yourself. I think lots of people just aren't used to a religious environment much for the joke. At most half the suggestions are only about making your existing punchline more obvious to outsiders.
