Walking into the empty sanctuary of his synagogue, a rabbi was suddenly possessed by a wave of mystical rapture, and he threw himself onto the ground before the Ark proclaiming, "Lord, I'm nothing!"
Seeing the rabbi in such a state, the cantor felt profoundly moved by similar emotions. He too threw himself down in front of the Ark proclaiming, "Lord, I'm nothing!"
Then, way in the back of the synagogue, the janitor threw himself to the ground, and he too shouted, "Lord, I am nothing."
Seeing this, the rabbi turned to the cantor and whispered, "Look who thinks he’s Nothing!"
