Book Description
The Seven Commandments of Noah are the basic moral fabric of our Nation so declared the USA congress in 1991. They are, in fact, the essential moral dictums of any decent civilization. The Seven Commandments are presented in the Books of Genesis and Exodus, starting with the Story of Creation and finishing with the Sinai revelation.
This book focuses on the first Commandment, IDOLATRY, as shown in the Book of Genesis. The questions it deals with are:
Who is the Creator? Why did He create the World? Why did He create Adam? What are His Names? What is the Eternal Trail of Idolatry? How did He make Adam? What is the Kingdom of Mercy? What is the Eternal Sabbath? What is Heavenly KINGSHIP? What is Heavenly ONENESSS? What is Evil? How and when was Evil made? Who made it? When will Evil end?
The material upon which the classes are based is taken from the vast resources of the Talmud, Midrash, Commentators and the Holy Zohar. It draws from Kabala, though it is not a kabalistic book. The reader will become familiar with the foundations of the Jewish faith as practiced at the Holy Temple of Jerusalem.
