Saturday service at the Synagoge. Rabbai is raising money for the new building. The congregation is $750,000 short. A brothel owner raises her hand and pledges $250,000. Rabbai asked her to sit down and refuses the donation without explanation and continues the fund raising. Another $250,000 raised and the congregation is still short $500,000. A brothel owner raises her hand and pledges $250,000 with the same results.
Rabbai asking everybody to look hard in their finances and do the best. Another $250,000 raised and they are still short $250,000.
Once again a brothel owner raises her hand and pledges $250,000. Rabbai can no longer remain calm and tells her that they can not accept the dirty money. Silence in the room was broken by an old Jew outcry:
"What do you mean "dirty money"? It's OUR money!
