This applies only when he accepts them and fulfills them because the Holy One, blessed be He, commanded them in the Torah and informed us through Moses, our teacher, that Noah&#8217;s descendants had been commanded to fulfill them previously. However, if he fulfills them out of intellectual conviction, he is neither a resident alien, nor one of &#8216;the pious among the gentiles,&#8217; nor one of their wise men.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>This quotation from Rambam confirms that recognizing the divine origin of the Seven Laws and the authority of Moses is essential for Noahides to be acknowledged as the pious among the gentiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Oral Torah<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The 8th principle of Torah-based Faith that was enumerated by Rambam (Maimonides) is<sup data-fn=\"76a06d04-f72b-4c2f-ac58-98165ea56536\" class=\"fn\"><a id=\"76a06d04-f72b-4c2f-ac58-98165ea56536-link\" href=\"#76a06d04-f72b-4c2f-ac58-98165ea56536\">5<\/a><\/sup>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I fully believe that all of the Torah, as we possess it today, was given to Moses by G-d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that we believe that G-d gave both the Written and Oral Torah to Moses. The Written Torah\u201d was transcribed by Moses \u201cfrom the mouth of the Almighty\u201d and is contained within the Torah scroll. The Oral Torah was handed down by word of mouth from Moses to Joshua, then to the Elders, the Prophets, and the Great Assembly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Men of the Great Assembly were a group of 120 prophets and sages, including notable figures such as Ezra, Nehemiah, Mordecai, Daniel, Simeon the Just, and the prophets Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi. These individuals formed the central religious authority at the beginning of the Second Temple period, which began in the 4th century BCE. This assembly played a crucial role in shaping Jewish tradition, including formalizing the prayers and blessings that are still used to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to their liturgical contributions, the Men of the Great Assembly were responsible for systematizing much of the Oral Torah. They organized it into a structured, memorized form that became known as the Mishnah. For generations, the Mishnah was passed down orally, with students committing its teachings to memory. Over time, it evolved into a curriculum for study that provided the foundational principles for Jewish law and tradition.<sup data-fn=\"a8505487-475f-4faf-b6d9-1388534f35e9\" class=\"fn\"><a id=\"a8505487-475f-4faf-b6d9-1388534f35e9-link\" href=\"#a8505487-475f-4faf-b6d9-1388534f35e9\">6<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the Roman rule and subsequent Jewish exile, there was a growing fear that the Oral Torah, which had been transmitted orally for centuries, might be forgotten due to the persecution of the Jewish people and the dispersion of scholars. To prevent this, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Judah_ha-Nasi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rabbi Yehudah HaNasi<\/a> took the decisive step of compiling and transcribing the Mishnah in approximately 198 CE, giving it its final written form. This marked a significant milestone in Jewish history, as it ensured the preservation of the Oral Torah for future generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the centuries that followed, rabbinical scholars continued to engage in discussions and debates about the Mishnah&#8217;s teachings. These discussions, which delved deeper into the meaning and application of the laws in the Mishnah, were also eventually recorded by Rav Ashi and his son&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mar_bar_Rav_Ashi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mar bar Rav Ashi<\/a> and became known as the Gemara. Together, the Mishnah and Gemara form the Talmud, with the most prominent version being the Babylonian Talmud, which remains a central text in Jewish learning and law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A personal note<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I made the promise in a personal way in prayer to G-d.
