The language of Heaven

(Mind you, I got this joke from a Russian)

A policeman is walking around on patrol when he spots an older gentleman sitting on a bench outside Vladivostok train station. The man on the bench seems to be muttering intensely to himself. Curious, the policeman walks up to him and asks:

“Good citizen, what are you mumbling about? Has something happened?”

The man looks up, confounded at first, before his eyes orient on the policeman.

“Oh, sorry, good sir officer, I didn’t see you there. No, nothing is wrong. I am just very focused. You see, I am old, and at my age, you never know when Death comes knocking. Therefore, I have decided that I shall learn Hebrew, in case I get to heaven.”

The policeman nods to himself at the wisdom in this, but while he doesn’t want to distress the old gentleman, he can’t help but ask:

“But, good citizen, what will you do if you instead end up in hell?”

The old man spreads his hand and shrugs.

“Well, as you hear for yourself, good sir officer, I already speak Russian.”
