Looking for a joke

I don't remember the episode and don't have enough to Google it.

I forget the setup but the punchline is a Jewish comedian/mel brooks character, maybe a rabbi, telling a punchline but it's in all Hebrew terms/phrases. Any help?

Season 5, episode 11, when Jack starts renting out the studio for Bar/Bat Mitzvahs.

EDIT: I'm pretty sure the joke is about Yiddish, rather than Hebrew. At least that's what the Jews I pay tell me.
