At the dawn of human history, G-d gave man seven rules to follow in
order that His world be sustained. So it is recounted in the Book of
Genesis as interpreted by our tradition in the Talmud. There will come
a time, our sages told us, that the children of Noah will be prepared
to return to this path. That will be the beginning of a new world, a
world of wisdom and peace.

According to the sages of the Talmud, there are 70 families with 70 paths within the great Family of Man. And each individual has his or her path within a path. Yet, there is one universal basis with 6 basic rules for us all. Anyone who lives by these rules, acknowledging that they are what G-d wants of us, is considered by our tradition to be righteous. That person is a builder with a share in the world as it is meant to be.

The Path of the Righteous Gentile is the only book that attempts to present a framework of the doctrine of the Seven Noahide Commandments in a usable form, albeit a limited and seminal one. The Path of the Righteous Gentile is a call to action for both the Jew and the non‑Jew, the Israelite and the Noahide.
