A beggar was about to enter the home of a wealthy man. When he saw him coming, the rich man left. The beggar could do nothing but shrug and leave. The wife asked the rich man when he returned: “Why did you leave when you saw the beggar?” “There is a saying in the Talmud that a beggar is equivalent to a dead man. I am a pious kohen. I cannot have a corpse in my house.” It is remarkable the excuses that can be found to avoid doing the right thing!
