To Perfect the World: The Rebbe’s Call to Teach the Noahide Code to All Mankind

 To Perfect the World: 

The Rebbe’s Call to Teach the Noahide Code to All Mankind


 

Produced by Ask Noah International, published under the auspices of Sichos In English.

Compiled and translated by Rabbi Yehoishophot Oliver. Editor: Dr. Michael Schulman, Ph.D.

New 2nd Edition! Format: 6″ x 9″ Hardcover, 385 Pages, weight = 1.44 lb

As a foremost global spiritual leader, the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, emphasized that G-d commanded the Jewish people, through Moses at Mount Sinai, to influence the people of the world to observe the Torah’s Seven Noahide Commandments. This mandate was transmitted through the generations and codified by Maimonides (Rambam). Despite the key importance of this mission, Jews were unable to fulfill it during most of their difficult history.

The Rebbe explained that by Divine Providence, the freedoms of religion and speech in our modern societies make it possible – and thus obligatory – for Jews to now be involved in spreading out this much-needed universal message. But was any guidance provided for how to pursue this? In fact, the Rebbe directly addressed the following questions, and more:

What is the basis in Torah for this outreach?

What is the pious faith for Gentiles in G-d’s eyes, and what parts of Torah should they learn?

Who should be involved in this outreach?

This book presents a systematic compilation of the Rebbe’s many teachings and directives for Jews, and Gentiles as well, about how to widely promote belief in G-d, observance of the Noahide Code, and acts of goodness and kindness.

· Several Editor’s Notes have been added.

Description

Interest in the Seven Commandments for the Children of Noah is growing, and many Gentiles worldwide have committed to observe them. Before Ask Noah International (ANI) published The Divine Code, a comprehensive, clear, and expert guide in English for observance and in-depth study of these Noahide precepts was lacking.

When it was published in Hebrew as Sheva Mitzvot HaShem, it was enthusiastically endorsed by prominent Torah scholars. It is unique among other books on this subject, as an authoritative text that is footnoted with extensive Talmudic and post-Talmudic sources. The Divine Code is the authorized translation according to Rabbi Weiner’s review and editing. It includes copious additional explanations and enlightening Editor’s Notes.

The book examines and greatly clarifies the foundations and details of the Noahide precepts. At the outset, Rabbi Weiner identifies and applies the fundamental principles for determining the practical requirements for righteous living, within Torah law for pious Gentiles. It contains eight sections, beginning with Fundamentals of the Faith, followed by sections that provide comprehensive explanations of each of the Seven Commandments and their many offshoots. It includes an Appendix on the Pious Gentile and Ger Toshav in Torah Law.

Several section introductions are written by the renown Rabbi J. Immanuel Schochet, o.b.m., a leading Torah scholar and author of popular books on Torah-based spirituality and philosophy. Additional section introductions are contributed by Joe M. Regenstein, Ph.D., a leading expert on guidelines in the meat industry for animal welfare; Arthur A. Goldberg, J.D., author of Light in the Closet; Rabbi Shimon D. Cowen, Ph.D., Director of the Institute for Judaism and Civilization, and (the editor) Michael Schulman, Ph.D., Executive Director of ANI and Asknoah.org.

This book is recommended for late teen and adult Gentiles who desire to correctly understand and observe the Torah-based Noahide Code.

Campaign to read Psalms 119

 


WHERE THERE IS FAITH,

THERE IS HOPE!

 

World Prayer for Israel JOIN US!

PRAYING FOR PEACE AND LET US BEG FOR THE RELEASE OF THE KIDNAPPED! WHERE THERE IS FAITH, THERE IS HOPE!

Reading of Psalms 119 on Tuesday at 7 pm, NY time.

After Pandemic, Economy Crash, October 7 - WHAT ELSE CAN WE EXPECT?

The situation is extreme, and the present and future depend on the efforts of all of us. Isn't it time for skeptics, non-religious people and religious people to evaluate a COMPLETE CHANGE? There's something missing for us to do! Each person, each one of us, no one needs to tell you what you need to do, you know!

If there are other plagues or human threats like Nuclear Bomb, which can end us and this world, why not do it before it's too late!? I'm sorry, the truth hurts, human beings don't like to be held accountable, life is not a party, all holy books have indications and instructions on what humanity needs to do and obey, the Holy One Blessed Be He.

Keep the Faith, join us in prayers! * FOR THIS REASON, TOGETHER, LET'S READ TEHILLIM 119 WITH DEEP INTENTION, FAITH, HOPE FOR PEACE IN ISRAEL AND MAY EACH KIDNAPPED COME BACK TO HOME SOON!

PLEASE, THIS TUESDAY AT 7 PM.

With emunah, love and kindness!

MOSHIACH

 


According to the teaching of the Arizal, the soul of Moshiach comes down in every generation. If the people (Jewish People, specifically, as "chosen people", in my honest opinion - Gilson) of the generation are worthy (being Torah, Shabbat Observant, in my honest opinion - Gilson) the Moshiach will be revealed.

Otherwise he will pass on unacknowledged and the lofty soul will return later in a new body.

Last week, we left Egypt.

 


Last week, we left Egypt.

Our sages in the Passover Agadah told us that we are so lucky it happened,  because otherwise we, our children and grandchildren wouldn't have ever escaped.

Let me explore what they meant by this.

Pharoh will die some day, how can the redemption from Egypt, more than 3,000 years ago, help us till today?

Well, the name of the game is Ego.

In Hebrew, Egypt is Mitzrayim, the same route of the word as Tzar, narrow.

Every one of us carries Egypt with him.

In fact, the word Pharoh, Changing the letters in Hebrew, you get the word Oref, the neck.

We all know that we are a stiff necked people, and that is where the freedom is coming from.

When we know that our own Pharoh, the stubbornness of the ego, is narrow between the brain. Where the Truth is, to the heart. Where the ego is, all we concentrate and care about is ourselves.  To the extreme of narcissism. 😳

But let it go, be there for others, care ONLY about others, that's where you'll find freedom.

It's either we are locked, imprisoned, in our own ego, or we are free and busy with others.

 

Let's be free, only for each other, and be ready to accept the miracles.

Just like the Splitting of the sea in this week, Parasha.
