After The Flood

Ever wonder what happened when Noah and his family exited the Ark after the Flood?

"To the world you might be one person, but to one person you just might be the world".
"The only thing necessary for evil to exist is for good people to do nothing."

Wisdom From Pirke Avot

Simon the Just…used to say,
“Upon three things the world stands:
On Torah, on (Divine) Service, and on Deeds of Lovingkindness.”
Pirke Avot 1:2

Ben Zoma said,
“Who is wise? The one who learns from all people…
“Who is mighty?  The one who subdues the evil inclination…
“Who is rich? The one who rejoices in his portion….
“Who is honored? The one who honors other human beings….”
Pirke Avot 4:1

The Most Important Part of Studying Torah

The most important element in validating interpretations of the written and oral Torah is the concept of Mesorah. Mesorah is the greatest proof to the authenticity of any concept, practice, or interpretation.

Although the seven Noahide laws have their origins in Adam and Noah, God chose to transmit and preserve them via Moses and the giving of the Torah at Sinai. This placed the Seven Mitzvos within the structure and system of Torah study and learning. Therefore, the seven Noahide laws must be interpreted and understood within the context of the Torah.

This point cannot be stressed enough: Jewish, and therefore Noahide, study and interpretation of the Torah is unique and unlike the study of any other religious texts.

The Truth About the Ger

 

Don't ever be afraid of seeking truth or speaking the truth, as it says in

Proverbs 12:19...

Truthful lips will be established forever, But a lying tongue is only for a moment

Are Noahides Allowed to Pray?

For Noahides, prayer is considered a mitzvah when performed in response to personal needs or circumstances. If one experiences challenges for which he does not pray, his lack of response is tantamount to a denial of God as the sovereign ruler of all things and all events. When one does pray in such circumstances, it demonstrates reliance and belief in the Creator.

When a Noahide prays to give thanks or praise absent a personal need, he still receives reward for such prayer even though it is not of the same nature as prayer prompted by personal needs.

As with all personal prayers, there are no fixed texts for Noahide prayer. Since all Noahide prayer is essentially personal prayer, it is ideally expressed using sincere words from the heart.

Tools For Noahide Torah Study

The journey of Noahide Torah study is endless in depth and has no destination.  You will realize this when your very essence proclaims, "the more I learn, the less I know"!  Before you make this proclamation remember that it is a mitzvot for a Noahide to study the Noahide Laws and apply them in every aspect of their life.  After you make that proclamation you will realize and appreciate why it is a mitzvot for a Noahide to study the Noahide Laws and apply them. The study of Torah is what gives us our awe of the Creator.  The more we study the more awe we gain.

You are 'On Air'

You Are ‘On Air’

(As it is summer vacation season in Australia this is a ‘micro blog’ – the second in the series of Fire, Air, Earth and Water).

He’s blowing hot air. An interesting expression. The Yiddish expression is Luftgesheft – a business lacking any substance - based on ‘air’. ‘It’s all up in the air’; ‘floating on air’; ‘nose in the air’; ‘out of thin air’; ‘walking on air’ – so many metaphoric nuances of something as intangible as air.Yet Air is one of the four basic personality traits in Kabbalistic teachings. Fire, Air, Earth and Water describe the basic four lements of the universe, tangibly and spiritually.

The dominant human expression of Air is through speech. Breath, impinging on the larynx and shaped by the lips, teeth, tongue, palate and throat, shapes the flow of air into intellible sounds. But the ulitmate ‘word-shaper’ is the soul. Words flowing though the Nefesh Behamit (ego self) become malicious gossip, lies, or flattery for personal gain. But flowing through the consciousness of the Nefesh Elokit (selfless soul) the air becomes a powerful means of connection, closeness, sharing, mentoring, counseling and more.

Words can contribute or deprive, give or take. There is no ‘neutral territory’. A compliment may raise self-esteem, improve, soothe and instruct. But the same words may be only masking as a compliment while the real intention is to take advantage, win over, disarm, or other ulterior motive. The difference lies in the Kavana – the value-call within the act of mindfulness. Is it arising from insecurity and therefore a ruse for protecting the ego, or do the words flow from Hessed (compassion) a wish to share of one’s giftedness and confer it on another?

Some people are Air dominated. They speak easily, even wax loquacious, speak publicly with ease and are good conversationalists. Others have a lower quantum of Air in their personality mix. They tend to be silent, non-communicative, or poor speakers or unclear either in meaning or diction. But they will inevitably possess compensating strengths in one of their other elemental personality traits of Fire, Water or Earth.

If Air is your strength, use it mindfully, allowing your unique soul to shared with others. Identify your elemental strength. If it’s Air always be aware that you are always ‘on air’.
