The angel, Eliyahu HaNavi, approached God, saying: See that man over there? Every day, he slips a note in the Wailing Wall, asking to win the first prize in the lottery. Please let him win.


God: But….


Eliyahu HaNavi, interrupting: Hes a good man. He deserves to win. He performs many acts of charity.


God: But…


Eliyahu HaNavi, interrupting: Let him win – if not for his sake, then for the sake of his twelve children.


God: But he never buys a ticket.
