You
Must Have Loved Your Mother-In-Law
George went on a vacation to the Middle East with most of his family including
his mother-in-law.
During their vacation and while they were visiting Jerusalem, George's
mother-in-law died.
With the death certificate in hand, George went to the American Consulate
Office to make arrangements to send the body back to the States for proper
burial.
The Consul, after hearing of the death of the mother-in-law told George
that the sending of a body back to the States for burial is very, very
expensive. It could cost as much as $5,000.00. The Consul then advised
that in most cases the person responsible for the remains normally
decides
to bury the body here. This would only cost $150.00.
George thinks for some time and answers, "I don't care how much it will
cost to send the body back; that's what I want to do."
The Consul, after hearing this, says "You must have loved your mother-in-law
very much considering the difference in price."
"No, it's not that," says George. "You see, I know of a case many
years ago of a person that was buried here in Jerusalem. On the third day
he arose from the dead! I just can't take that chance.
