It is still Shavuot. We are still celebrating the 10 Commandments. We've seen Mel Brooks, Steven Colbert and even Peter Griffin take their turns with those two famous tablets, but we have found a video that we think may be the greatest 10 Commandments clip ever.
10 Things I Hate About Commandments
Our Shavuot celebration continues with a list of
Happy Shavuot!
Yes, that's right! We're using another semi-obscure Jewish holiday to inspire our comedy blog!
In honor of the Jewish holiday that celebrates the 10 Commandments, here's some more hilarious commandment comedy. This one is brought to us by the brilliant Steven Colbert.
Congressman Lynn Westmoreland (GA) cosponsored a bill to require the 10 Commandments to be posted in the House of Representatives and the Senate.
Stephen Colbert asks him why this bill is important, especially since this was only bill he had ever sponsored. The results are hilarious.
Ladies and gentlemen, today is the Jewish holiday Shavuot, where we celebrate the anniversary of Moses getting those 10 Commandments.
Who is better suited to honor this auspicious day than good ol' Mel Brooks? On this Jewish comedy blog, no one.
Seriously, the man's one of the few people to ever win Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony award. In addition to all that, even his non-award winners make up some of our favorite films of all time. He's amazing.
So it is no surprise that when we realized that it was Shavuot today, this Mel and the 10 Commandments clip (from History of the World Part I) was the first thing that popped into our heads. Short, sweet and classic.
