יומא-עה

A למדן visiting a small town went to the בית כנסת to pray מנחה, but there was no מנין to be had. “It’s a weekday and hard to gather 10 men,” he was told. “On שבת, we get a nice turnout.” The למדן remarked: “This is the opposite of the מן that fell for בני ישראל in the מדבר. The מן would be gathered all week, but couldn’t be found on שבת. In this town, the people for a מנין can’t be found all week, and only gather on שבת.”
