Jacob was wealthy but not very knowledgeable American Jew on his first tour of Israel. the tour guide took the group to an expensive shop in Safed, where Jacob saw a beautiful silver mezzuza, which he decided to buy for the house that his newly married rabbi had purchased. When Jacob returned home, he stopped at the Rabbi's study and presented his gift. The Rabbi unwrapped the package, admired the mezzuza and looked inside it and then at the wrapping. Finally, he asked: "Is that all they gave you?" Jacob thought for a moment and then said: "There was a sheet on instructions in Hebrew, but I did not think you need it."
