  1. These are probably the common questions asked by non-Jews, as they only understand their 'Bible' to mean the five books of Moses and that's it and they have their own Bible (new testament). They don't understand that our holy Torah is Divine and consists of the 24 books (Prophets, (Tanach) etc., which goes back to Sinai and then on to the greats of our people with ruach hakodesh, explaining every word, vowel and detail possible). Without all the commentaries, etc., how is it possible to understand anything just from the chamishe chumsheh Torah?
    They take every word literally but they cannot possibly really understand it. If they don't see it written literally in the five books, they get confused and have no idea of what Torah really is.

  2. Intensive Training(Through the most halachic source available- see below) starting April 15th. A course for BOTH Rabbis and Bnei Noach and everyone in between...and when you are finished you are able to be a "Nagid" a clergy member in the Noachide Community...The Rabbis who wrote the program are dayanim (see bios below) and they have access to ask questions to Rav Kanievsky and Rav Sternbauch. It is a joint effort between Pirchei Shoshanim (A Smicha program for Rabbis and Noachide Nations)

    All the info and answers to questions regarding the course:

  4. To Unknown, you meant to say that marrying the males of Moav & Ammon are NOT allowed.

    Also, the 7 Laws of Noach were given to man after Adam/Eve were created. These laws were given to the children of Noach which was given to Abraham and so on, but is hidden away. These laws are the basic laws of humanity which every human being must adhere to, to live a civilized life.

  5. To Unknown, since when were Moavite men allowed to marry Jewish women or convert? Firstly, no one knows who stems from the Moavites and Ammonites today, since all these nations are long gone. At the time they existed, they were NOT allowed to convert or marry Jewish women. The Torah allows the Moavite women to marry Jewish men and convert, as did Ruth, the great grandmother of King David. It was only the Moavite men because they did not provide water for the Jews when they passed through their land on the way to Eretz Yisrael and even hired the wicked Bilam, the sorcerer, to curse the Jews, so H' forbade them to ever become a part of the Jewish nation. But, the women were not included in that prohibition.

  7. Every Jew I know has always known that the Moavite were not allowed to marry into the Jewish people nor convert. This is common knowledge.
