On a beautiful Sabbath morning, all of the members of congregation Beth Israel were praying dutifully in their seats.
Suddenly, at the bimah, Satan appears!! Everyone starts screaming and running for the front entrance, trampling each other in their determined efforts to get away. Soon, everyone is evacuated from the synagogue except for one man – Moishe Silverberg, who sits calmly in his pew, seemingly oblivious to what’s going on. This confuses Satan a bit. Satan walks up to Moishe and says, "Hey, don't you know who I am?"
Satan says, "Well, aren't you afraid of me?" Moishe says, "Nope."
Satan, perturbed, says, "And why aren't you afraid of me?" Moishe replies, "Well, I've been married to your sister for 25 years. How much worse could you be?"
