Oy!: The Ultimate Book of Jewish Jokes

I collect joke books. Many have good jokes. This is by far the best. I sent a copy to my Rabbi for Hanukkah.

Makes a great gift for men who are in the hospital or rehab! They don't have to concentrate on a novel. They can turn to any page in the book and be entertained. I 'm going to order more to keep on hand as gifts. Especially good for the "senior" set!

This is a book of Jewish jokes, organized by general topic (e.g. Money, Marriage, Religion.) My wife (Jewish) enjoys most of the jokes in this book. But there are some repetitions - same joke with a few changed names in different sections - and a lot of jokes that are clearly not Jewish. In some cases, because we know the joke well. But in other cases because that's not Jewish behavior. Some of them are obviously Irish-Catholic jokes with some name and title (Priest becomes Rabbi) changes. Other than those, a really good joke book.

I've been telling his jokes and I myself laugh every time I tell one. It's the joke that keeps giving. If you like to laugh and like Jewish Humor, I recommend this book.

I absolutely loved this book; bought several copies for friends as well as one for me! Jokes are in categories so you can find one for every occasion. Jewish couples will love this book as will anybody with a sense of humor.

VERY NICE GIFT

Mostly, these are not "Jewish" jokes; they are merely jokes which have been around forever, only now they have characters with Jewish names. For example, "Two guys walk into a bar. . . ," becomes "Moshe and Abraham walk into a bar. . . " Blonde jokes feature a "Rifka" or a "Sadie." Instead of the old man telling a priest about his sexual peccadilloes, he tells a rabbi. Mel Brooks found himself laughing out loud at this stuff? I find laughable the idea that Mr. Brooks would be amused by any of it.

A wonderful book filled with stories and jokes about the plight of Jewish people that is designed to make the reader laugh. The incidents make light of the events that happen to people in such a way as to make the reader feel connected to the story teller. A truly entertaining book.

Very good. I am pleased with this book. Funney
