A Topical Jewish Joke

On the Sabbath, the Beadle approaches a guest in the synagogue and says to him, 'I want to call you up to the Torah.
What is your is your Hebrew name?'

The man answers, 'Esther son of Moshe.'

The Beadle says, 'No, I need your real first name.'

'It's Esther ben Moshe,' the man says.

'How can that be your name? Esther is a woman's name.'

The man replies, 'I've been having financial problems, so everything is in my wife's name.
