While looking through this one website, I found this article about "The Seven Noahide Laws". I had never heard of these before and read with great interest. When I was finished, I thought that I should share them here. We should seek truth wherever we can find it and this is most certainly truth. Heck, they're basically a condensation of the 10 Commandments. I was particularly impressed with Law number Four, the one regarding the sanctimony of Marriage.
As is said in my faith: "If there is anything hvirtuous, ilovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things." This article meets those standards and then some.
Awesome post. Through work I have grown to know several Baltimore Orthodox Jews. They are great folks.
These are so important, G_d himself set them in stone!
Why is “-” preferable to “o”?
I don’t read anything about Talmudic laws taking precedence over the Christian New Covenant. Its not in the New Testament.
What is this, some sort of gimmick to have Christians render preeminence to Judaism? Sorry, I see Jesus Christ as superior to both the Mosaic Old Covenant and the Talmud.
The first so-called commandment listed here for us Gentiles forbids idolatry. Well, good. As a Christian I am against pagan idolatry too. But I am made to wonder whether or not they include the Christian worship of Jesus as idolatry.

Dear Fellow Noahides and Our Jewish Friends,
For many years we Noahides have found ourselves alone in our pursuit of the truth of HaShem. We all have made great sacrifices along the way. Many have lost family, friends, co-workers and more as a result of making the decision to keep the Noahide Laws. We have continued to study and meet other Noahides via the Internet and some have been fortunate enough to be able to start small Noahide groups. We are living in extraordinary times. Our world is plagued with violence, moral decay and diminishing human dignity. Yet, we find ourselves blessed with an unprecedented outpouring of knowledge that is both timeless and technological. It is a kind of flood that is both spiritual and material. We are poised on the brink of destruction or greatness. It is our hope and belief, here at Noahide Nations, that mankind is approaching the latter, fueled by innovative discoveries and a growing awareness in the deep riches of the Torah knowledge. The melding of these resources coupled with a heightened sense of the need for community is the underlying theme of our most ambitious project to date.
We invite you to be a part of “Noahides Future is NOW” at the World Conference of the Noahide Nations, June 26th through the 29th of 2008. The site for this event will be the Ft. Lauderdale Airport Hilton. We have chosen this location so that the large Jewish community in nearby Hollywood, Florida, will be able to fully participate in this rare 4-day gathering of Noahide and Jewish leaders who represent the best and the brightest in fields of Torah study, Science, History and Government. You’ll hear…
