Jewish
 
of the
Week

An archaeologist was digging in 
the Negev Desert in Israel and 
came upon a casket containing 
a mummy. After examining it, he 
called the curator of a prestigious 
natural history museum.

“I’ve just discovered a 3,000- 
year-old mummy of a man 
who died of heart failure!” 
the excited scientist exclaimed. 
To which the curator replied, 
“Bring him in. We’ll check it out.”

A week later, the amazed 
curator called the archaeologist. 
“You were right about the 
mummy’s age and cause of 
death. How in the world 
did you know?”

 “Easy. There was a piece 

 
 of paper in his hand 
 that said, 
 ‘10,000 shekels 
 on Goliath’.”
