Misapathim

 After giving the Torah to the Jewish people, God told Moses to climb Mount Sinai again and this time God would teach him the details of the Torah for 40 days.

The sixth section of Exodus is basically the law code (misapatim, in Hebrew) that God taught Moses while he was on Mount Sinai.

God also taught Moses the law regarding damage caused by animals or someone’s property, including holes dug in public spaces.

If someone finds or digs a hole… and an ox or a donkey falls into it, then the person responsible for the hole must pay the consequences. (Exodus 21:33-34).

The same law that applies to holes (i.e. the danger of falling/drowning) applies to raised barriers or other dangerous obstacles.

Spiritually, a hole symbolizes our ability to receive from our ability to give.

If used properly, this ability can be beneficial but without proper supervision, it can cause harm.

If we give and receive carelessly, not paying attention to what or how much we give or receive or to whom we give or from whom we receive, we will be a danger to Society.

But if we choose to receive only positive influences and spread only positive things around us, we will be a source of blessing to everyone around us.

 Here we want to explain about Noahide The term "Noahide" relates to the "Seven Laws of Noah," which are a set of ethical and moral principles that, according to Jewish tradition, were given by God to Noah and, therefore, apply to all of humanity.

The Belief of Torah

  The Torah is very different from other belief systems and when the Israelites received the Torah, they saw and witnessed that they heard the voice of Hashem (God) on Mount Sinai. We as humans cannot understand the essence of Hashem (God) because Hashem is the creator and Hashem is not human or has never been transformed into a human being in any form. The Torah is not a book that was sent down from heaven but a part of Hashem's statement to Moshe (Moses) and the Israelites. If we as non-Jews carry out the 7 laws of Noah, that means you have carried out the commandments of the Torah. In the 7 laws of Noah there is a commandment about the prohibition of sexual immorality, for example, you must maintain the honor of men or women and do not get pregnant outside of marriage. Gay, lesbian or homosexual have violated the commandments or guidance of the Torah itself. Non-Jews who carry out the 7 laws of Noah and that has carried out the rules of the Torah even we who obey the 7 laws of N...

The Seven Laws of Noah and the Dimension of the Soul

From here we as Noahides can learn that: 1. Sexual immorality is a deviation from pure love (Chesed) 2. Killing is a deviation from strength (Gevurah) 3. Stealing is a deviation from beauty (Tiferet) because Tiferet is the nature that allows humans to relate to each other with attention and consideration 4. Worshiping idols is a deviation from worshiping God 5. Blasphemy is a deviation from the soul's ability to say Thank You to God The first five commandments (from the above order) and the last were given to Adam, at the beginning of the creation of the world, the sixth commandment (from the above order) was given to Noah, as taught in the Torah that Noah was a Tzadiq (pious) person, and he was the foundation (Yesod) of his generation. This commandment was given to Noah in physical form: it is permissible to eat the flesh of animals, but they must be slaughtered first and their blood must not be consumed. The last commandment, explicitly formulated in the form of a positive senten...
