Seven Laws for a Beautiful Planet
The Noahide Tradition
By Tzvi Freeman
The Goal
Why have these seven principles become so crucial today?
Because today we stand at the doorstep of a whole new world. All our technology, all our advances in science and social justice, all drive us up a steady track towards an age promised by the prophets and described by the sages—an age of wisdom and of peace.
The know-how is in place. We can feed everyone. We can teach everyone. We can all join together in dialog and creativity. We only need a common ground. Not one that any human being can establish for us, not one that can arise from our consensus. That’s just more dusty topsoil, easily blown away by the first wind. The common ground we need must be the ground from which we were formed, at the essence of humanity’s purpose and the meaning of reality.
And that lies only in the hand of the Infinite Light that formed us. The voice that Noah heard.
