During his annual visit to a school in Tel Aviv, the inspector from the ministry of Education asked a student “Who broke the Tablets of the covenant?” The student quickly replied “It wasn’t me. I didn’t do it.”
So the inspector told that student’s teacher how the student had replied to his question. The teacher immediately said “I know that student very well. He is an honest boy. If he says he didn’t do it, he didn’t do it.”
So the inspector told the principal about both of these conversations. The principal immediately said “How much could these tablets be worth? Listen here is 100 Shekel. Let’s just forget about the damage.”
