India expels Chabad Rabbi for conversion efforts

In 2012 Indian authorities expelled one Rabbi Bernstein because he failed to indicate on his visa that he would be attempting to convert foreigners. It is relevant that Rabbi Bernstein is of the Chabad-Lubavitch tradition of Judaism, as this is the Jewish tradition which is recognized in American Noahide Law (here & here) as the premier organization in spreading the Noahide Laws worldwide. Mistakenly, most Hindus believe that Jews are not into conversion, and even if they were, converting people, is this such a crime that warrants expulsion? Remember, Noahide Law demands non-Jews set up court of justice to enforce the Noahide Laws on pain of decapitation. Setting up courts to establish a parallel legal system is a threat to society and nation and so the India government would have good reason to treat Noahide conversions seriously. 

"Rabbi Zalman Bernstein charged by Indian authorities for failing to declare on his visa application that he would be conducting religious activities and of trying to convert foreigners".

Unofficial Sanhedrin Sets Up "Council for Noahides"

In 2005 an unofficial body called the nascent Great Sanhedrin was founded to establish a "Council for Noahides". The article published in the Israel National News gives the specifics. We learn that "Noahides" are non-Jews who have willingly taken on the “obligation” of following the seven Noahide Laws. According to the Rabbis, their have been Noahide communities for some time, but until this point, they have been scattered, but some of these communities are in India. In order to help these Noahide communities, the nascent Sanhedrin currently based in Tiberius has decided to assist the movement form a leadership council.

With the Sanhedrin’s blessing, a Rabbi named Michael Bar-Ron went to the United States to help establish a “High Council” of Noahides. Five Noahides were selected to be on this new Noahide “High Council”. The High Council was the idea of Rabbi Avraham Toledano, and its stated purposes are 1) “serve and organize all kosher B’nei Noach communities of the world under a single body that can operate under the direct authority and supervision of the Sanhedrin” 2) “To form a vessel through which the Torah, from Zion (via the Sanhedrin) can effectively serve non-Jewish communities around the world.” 3) “transform the Noahide movement from a religious phenomenon – a curiosity many have not heard of – into a powerful international movement that can successfully compete with, and with G-d’s help bring about the fall of, any religious movement but the pure authentic faith that was given to humanity through Noach, the father of us all”. According to the Sanhedrin it is incumbent upon all humanity to follow the Seven Noahide Laws and widespread observance is to be worked for, even if that means turning to proselytization.

Sanhedrin Moves to Establish Council For Noahides

B’nai Noach, literally “Children of Noah,” known as Noahides, are non-Jews who take upon themselves the Torah’s obligations for non-Jews – consisting of seven laws passed on from Noah following the flood, as documented in Genesis (see below).

Until now, Noahide communities and organization had been scattered around the globe, with a particular concentration centered around the southern United States. The communities themselves are a relatively recent phenomenon bolstered by the fact that the Internet has allowed individuals sharing Noahide beliefs to get in touch with one another. 

The court of 71 rabbis, known as the Sanhedrin, which was reestablished last October in Tiberius following the reinstitution of rabbinic semikha, decided, after numerous requests from the Noahide community, to assist the movement in forming a leadership council.

Rabbi Michael Bar-Ron, with the Sanhedrin’s blessing, travelled to the United States to meet with representatives of the Noahide movement and select members for the High Council. Bar-Ron, an ordained student, talmid samukh, who currently sits on the Sanhedrin, is also one of the Sanhedrin’s spokesmen.

Bar-Ron organized a small conference in California where six of the council’s future members were selected and also addressed the annual convention of the Vendyl Jones Research Institute – one of the Noahide organizations represented on the council. At the VJRI convention, Bar-Ron met five more of the Noahide leaders who will be joining the council.

The purpose of the council, which was the brainchild of Rabbi Avraham Toledano, is to assist the B’nei Noach in their struggle to observe the word of G-d. “The goal is to unify, serve and organize all kosher B’nei Noach communities of the world under a single body that can operate under the direct authority and supervision of the Sanhedrin,” the decision to establish the body reads. “To form a vessel through which the Torah, from Zion (via the Sanhedrin) can effectively serve non-Jewish communities around the world.“

A third goal of the creation of the High Council and the Sanhedrin’s efforts in regard to the Noahide community, is to “transform the Noahide movement from a religious phenomenon – a curiosity many have not heard of – into a powerful international movement that can successfully compete with, and with G-d’s help bring about the fall of, any religious movement but the pure authentic faith that was given to humanity through Noach, the father of us all,” said emissary Bar-Ron.

To that end, one of the primary functions of the council will be the creation and development of effective outreach materials for the world. Although Judaism does not require or encourage non-Jews to become Jewish, the observance of the Seven Laws of Noah is incumbent upon humanity and widespread observance is to be worked toward, even through active proselytization, something that is anathema to Judaism. 

The council is also seeking to identify and contact communities around the world who observe the Seven Laws of Noah in order to invite them to learn more about the movement. B’nei Noach in India and Brazil are already in touch with Noahide leaders.

Asked why the Sanhedrin would reach out to B’nei Noach before concentrating on outreach within the Jewish community, Rabbi Bar-Ron answered: “There was no conscious choice to ignore the issue of outreach toward other Jews, but there is a Torah principle that a mitzva, positive precept, that comes to your hand should be fulfilled first and should not be put off. It happens to be that the group that showed the most outward display of support and genuine concern for the success of the Sanhedrin – contacting us from the very outset – were the B’nei Noach. One of the great responsibilities of the Jewish people is to spread the laws of Noach.”

Bar-Ron said he had mixed feelings as he departed for the meetings with the B’nei Noach leaders, as he left the day the forced expulsion of Jews from Gaza began. “I was in such a horrible heart-wrenching pain about leaving – I almost felt like a traitor to our people. But I realized then that although the government was detaching itself from the Land of Israel – a partial annulment of our covenant with G-d, similar to the sin of the ten spies – there is another aspect of the covenant that has not been pursued. That aspect is our obligation to be a nation of priests unto the nations. This is the core of the covenant with Abraham and it is something the Jewish people as a nation has not involved itself in since Second Temple times. So as the government disengaged from the covenant, I was participating in the reengagement with an aspect of the covenant that has been dormant.“

Bar-Ron was very impressed with the B’nei Noach leaders he met. “Each of them had a different unique talent. One was an extremely talented media coordinator, two were great scholars of Noahide law, one was secretary of a large successful Noahide community and research institute and one was a law enforcement officer for a number of years. Each had the wisdom and experience that will help them lead the movement.

All of the prospective members of the High Council are obligated to appear in Jerusalem this coming January, at which time they will be ordained by the Sanhedrin as members of the High Council. “One of the things I thought would be more difficult was implementing the fact that the Sanhedrin’s steering committee unanimously voted that the High Council members must appear personally before the Sanhedrin to be ordained as such,” Bar-Ron said. “But the level of commitment of these people is so high that it is not posing a problem at all.

Each member was screened very carefully and accepted not only on the basis of their high reputation, wisdom and experience – there were many dedicated and talented B’nei Noach who we would have loved to have accepted into the council – but for their role as representatives of entire B’nei Noach communities or as experts in a particularly field.

The acting head of the Sanhedrin, Rabbi Yoel Schwartz, has set up a Beit Din for B’nei Noach to serve the needs of B’nei Noach worldwide. At this point, the council will not serve as a adjudicating body.

“It is our sincere hope that in years to come, the knowledge of thehalakha, Torah law, of the Seven Laws of Noach will grow to such a degree that there will be true Noahide judges,” Bar-Ron said. “One of the goals is to delineate clearly the seven laws and their applications according to the Mishneh Torah of the Rambam.”

“Never before in recorded history have B’nei Noach come together to be ordained by the Sanhedrin for the purpose of spreading Noahide observance of laws,” Bar-Ron said. “This is the first critical step of bringing about the ultimate flowering of the brotherhood of mankind envisioned by Noach, the father of mankind.”

The Seven Laws of Noah are:

Shefichat damim - Do not murder.
Gezel - Do not steal or kidnap.
Avodah zarah - Do not worship false gods/idols.
Gilui arayot - Do not be sexually immoral (engage in incest, sodomy, bestiality, castration and adultery)
Birkat Hashem - Do not utter G-d’s name in vain, curse G-d or pursue the occult.
Dinim - Set up righteous and honest courts and apply fair justice in judging offenders and uphold the principles of the last five.

Ever Min HaChai - Do not eat a part of a live animal.

The Noahides Arrive In Israel 

According to plan, in January of 2006 the Noahide “High Council” from the United States appeared before the Sanhedrin to pledge their loyalty to the Talmudic doctrine which calls for the decapitation of anyone practicing a religion not approved by Judaism, blaspheming, or living outside of Jewish sexual standards. They also asserted the authority of the hereditary priesthood of the Sanhedrin.

The Noahides pledge their allegiance to the Sanhedrin and the Talmud (sometimes referred to as “Torah” or “Oral Torah”) and to spread the Noahide religion worldwide. The Rabbis of the Sanhedrin let the Noahides know that the High Council cannot be doubted or criticized and that the Sanhedrin are a special hereditary priesthood. The Sanhedrin admits that there will soon be conflicts with Christians and Muslims over this issue.

Muslims leaders also appeared before the council and spoke their approval for the Noahide Laws, Jews have deceptively been bringing Muslims under their Noahide fold, perhaps to use their manpower to spread and implement the doctrine (here, here & here). The Sanhedrin states that the timing for the propagation of Noahidism is perfect since now the Jews have access to world communications systems and can convert the globe very quickly. Finally, the Noahides announce their plans to use books and documentaries to indoctrinate children using science presented through the lens of the Torah. India, as well be shown, is one of their targets.

Indian Noahide Delegation Led By Dr. K.P.S. Gill

The Noahide representative for India is listed as “Bud Gill”. It is highly probable that “Bud Gill” is Dr. K.P.S Gill of India. Evidence of this comes from Dr. K.P.S Gill’s attendance at the Jerusalem Summit in 2003. The Summit was organized to combat Islamic terrorism but also sought to make Jerusalem the center and focus of this coalition, indeed to make Israel the new center of the world. Dr. K.P.S Gill is listed as a member of the Jerusalem Summit website and has written two articles for the outfit on Islamic based terrorism. His articles have since been removed but below are images and I have the PDFs. K.P.S. Gill has promised to bring the Noahide conversion program to India. K.P.S Gill is well known in India for being the former Director General of Police in Punjab state, a man with status and connections to law enforcement. 

Sanhedrin Recognizes Council

A group of non-Jewish delegates have come to Jerusalem to pledge their loyalty to the Laws of Noah.  They appeared before the nascent Sanhedrin, which established a High Council for B’nai Noach. The ten delegates appeared before a special session of the Jewish High Court of 71 Rabbis led by its Nassi (President) Rabbi Adin Even-Israel Steinsaltz. B’nai Noach, literally “Children of Noah,” also known as Noahides, are non-Jews who take upon themselves the Torah’s obligations for all members of the human race. The seven such laws were passed on via Noah following the Flood, as documented in Genesis (see below).  The gathering took place under a banner quoting the Biblical passage in Tzefania 3:9which refers to “all the nations… speak[ing] a pure language… proclaim[ing] the name of G-d.”

Rabbi Adin Even-Israel Steinsaltz addresses the Noahide Council membersThe Noahide delegates stood before the nascent Sanhedrin, which was reestablished over a year ago in Tiberias, following the renewal of Biblical ordination, and has met regularly since then. “Each one [of the B'nai Noach] comes with a name he has made in the world, as a teacher and example in his community of observance of the seven laws of Noah,” said Rabbi Michael Bar-Ron, the Sanhedrin’s emissary who facilitated the council’s organization, introducing the delegates. “At great physical and financial expense, they have flown across the world to Jerusalem, the holy city, to pledge before the court and all mankind, their allegiance to the Seven Laws of Noah, the laws of the Creator.”

B’nai Noah delegates sit before members of the nascent Sanhedrin in JerusalemEach of the Noahide representatives stood before the Sanhedrin and pledged: ”I pledge my allegiance to HaShem, G-d of Israel, Creator and King of the Universe, to His Torah and its representatives, the developing Sanhedrin. I hereby pledge to uphold the Seven Laws of Noah in all their details, according to Oral Law of Moses under the guidance of the developing Sanhedrin. May HaShem bless and aid me, my fellow council members and all B’nai Noach in all our endeavors for the sake of His name. Blessed are You G-d, King of the universe, who has caused me to live, sustained me, and brought me to this day.”

Ben Noah Roger Grattan pledges before the SanhedrinRoger Grattan, a council aide who lives in Maine, told Arutz-7 prior to the ceremony, “I am sure that this will be a paragraph in the history of civilization, although one could also write books on it. It is also the fulfillment of prophecy.” The core members of the council are Indian Foreign Relations Coordinator Bud Gill, Billy Jack Dial, Andrew Overall, Adam Penrod, Jacob Scharff, Chairman Larry Borntrager, Honorary Noahide Council Elder Vendyl Jones, Tennessee Noahide Community Head Jack Saunders and Council Speaker Jim Long.

Long addressed the rabbis of the court, requesting formal recognition of the Noahide Council: “Your honor, esteemed rabbis of the developing Sanhedrin. We are here because of your Torah. Rabbis before you elevated the Torah and it drew us in; before that, we stumbled in darkness. Everyone here today can tell you that in the past we have experienced the need to consolidate our efforts to make the world aware of the truth.”

Rabbi Even-Israel Steinsaltz, on behalf of the Sanhedrin, replied: “We hereby recognize these men as the first high council of B’nai Noach in accordance with the conditions they have accepted upon themselves.“

Rabbi Steinsaltz spoke about the role of the Jewish people in bringing the Laws of Noah to the world:  ”I am part of this Jewish family and I have nothing bad to say about that family, but you don’t go up to a man on the street and ask him to join your family. Instead you talk to him about joining the true belief in the Creator and about implementing divine justice toward his fellow man. We are setting up a global mission here – not to recruit people, but to bring them to the realization that there is one G-d.”

The Nassi explained that this aspect of Judaism lay dormant for years, as the Jewish people dealt with remaining alive and keeping the Torah in the exile.  Rabbi Steinsaltz called for an extensive project to be undertaken to help B’nai Noah in the nitty-gritty details of the observance of the religion. “A Shulhan Arukh [Jewish Law Code] for B’nai Noah must be written so that the individual can have guidance as to what to do,” Steinzaltz said, referring to the compendium of practical Jewish law written by Rabbi Yosef Karo of Tzfat in the 1560′s that is still used today.

He then addressed the ten B’nai Noah representatives, who had endured hours of Hebrew speeches throughout the day, in English:

“There are those people, so far only a small number, who say, ‘We are bound by the covenant of Adam and the covenant of Noah and we know we have to perform and fulfill our obligations.’ We, as Jews, have the same religion as you.

“Within the nation of Israel there is one tribe that deals with the Temple – the priests. We Jews are a specific tribe in the world that was chosen to be a tribe of priests – hereditary priests. Because of this we have special duties. Being a priest does not mean we are cut off from the other people. While the people of the world are all different units in the armies of the Lord, we are a special commando unit that maybe doesn’t get paid more, but has special assignments that may be more dangerous.”

Rabbi Even-Israel spoke about the difficulties that would confront the B’nai Noah movement as it grows:

“When we are speaking in general, almost every human being can more or less accept the laws of Noah, but when we get to particulars we will come to serious points, at which we disagree with Christianity and Islam.

“It is one thing when a religion is small, but as it gets bigger there will be huge pressures. We will be there beside you. We are members of the same religion that was given by the Almighty to humanity. Part of it was given to the Jews and part of it was given to humanity as a whole.”

The Nassi added that while there are those who doubt the ability of the Sanhedrin to be more than an idea leading up to the true reestablished court, the Noahide Council cannot be doubted or criticized due to its pure motives and unprecedented mission.

Rabbi Yaakov Ariel of the Temple Institute said that although Tuesday is the Fast of the Tenth of Tevet, which commemorates the beginning of the destruction, “Our sitting in Jerusalem now, alongside B’nai Noach, demonstrates the revival and the fulfillment of the words of the prophets.” Rabbi Ariel told those gathered that he had seen a rainbow that morning, “the closest thing to seeing Noah himself – the symbol of the covenant between G-d and humanity as witnessed by Noah.”

Famed archaeologist and Noahide leader Vendyl Jones addressed a festive banquet held for the Council members, speaking about the Seven Laws of Noah. He explained, in detail, the verses in the first eleven chapters of Genesis from which the seven laws are elucidated, saying that he always understood the first six, but never understood the law proscribing the eating of a limb of a living animal – until he remembered his cattle-branding days in Texas: “We would brand and castrate the cattle when I was young, and at night we would all sit around the campfire and eat what they called ‘mountain oysters’” – the testicles of the still-living animals.

Rabbi Nachman Kahane, Av Beit HaDin, spoke in English. “G-d created a primitive world,” he said. “We don’t grow loaves of bread, but grain that must be harvested, ground up and baked. We were meant to be partners with G-d. Unfortunately, throughout history, perversions of this idea grew. How can you be G-d’s partner if you are damned and born with original sin? How can you be a partner of G-d if your religion tells you to send yourchildren to shopping malls to blow people up? What we are creating today is a reconnection between the people and G-d. G-d is saying to humanity – everyone has a job. I happen to be a priest – I have a particular task for when the Temple is built – but all of us have a specific task just the same; I am no better.”

Jones told Kahane that his brother, slain Knesset Member Rabbi Meir Kahane, together with Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach, had organized one of the first conferences for B’nai Noah nearly 20 years ago.

Conference on Noahide CouncilEarlier in the day, several speakers addressed issues surrounding the B’nai Noah movement as part of a conference on the establishment of the B’nai Noah Council.

Sheikh Abdul Hadi Palazzi, a leader of the Italian Muslim Assembly, addressed the assembly, speaking about B’nai Noah in Islam: “Islamic law holds within it the seven laws of Noah and can be taught correctly to the Muslims of the world… I remember reading that a new Sanhedrin was created in Jerusalem [and] my impression was very positive – I thought maybe something new had been created to allow the Jewish people to project moral and legal clarity to counterbalance the lack of it in our world.”

Palazzi added that the project of creating a council of Noahide teachers would hopefully counter the negative educational effect of the Gaza withdrawal, “which taught the opposite to my people – it convinced many that only terrorism works.”

Rabbi Dr. Eliyahu Zini, who heads Yeshiva Or V’Yishuah and is the rabbi of Haifa’s Technion, spoke about the intuitive natural truths of the laws of Noah. “We must create a formal connection between the nation of Israel and the B’nai Noah to show the world that we are a nation of holy priests, as is dictated in our Torah,” he said, speaking partly in French as well, as the conference will be available on the Sanhedrin’s web site for viewing by prospective B’nai Noah worldwide.

Member of the Noahide Council at the conference earlier in the dayRabbi Yoel Schwartz, who received the blessing of leading hareidi-religious Rabbi Shalom Elyashiv to engage in the project of creating a court and infrastructure for B’nai Noah, addressed the conference as well. Rabbi Schwartz is the Deputy Av Beit HaDin [literally, Court Elder] of the Sanhedrin and the Av Beit HaDin for the B’nai Noah court. He spoke on the topic of “B’nai Noah and World Peace.”

“The Islamic Jihad against the world has restored religion to the center of the world’s consciousness,” Schwartz said. “Over 30 years ago, someone by the name of Eisenberg sent a proposal to the United Nations saying that there will never be world peace unless the citizens of the globe agree on certain principles of faith. It was adopted by the UN as one of its official documents but was not followed up upon and has since been forgotten. We are here today to follow up on that document and remind the UN why it exists. There will be world peace when the whole world agrees that there is one G-d. There are people who do not think what I am about to say is worthwhile, but I suggested years ago that we begin to translate our books, which are meant for the nations of the world, into Arabic as well [Schwartz has authored many books on practical observance for Noahides –ed.]. It is not by coincidence that we have this nation alongside us, surrounding and living inside the land upon our return to it, who also preserves the heritage of Abraham our father.”

Schwartz has indeed translated his books to Arabic, with the help of an Arab man he met at a bus stop who asked him a Mishanaic question, telling him he had already translated the Mishna, a codification of Jewish oral law. He said the entire printing has been sold out. “Muslim parents have thanked me for teaching their child that there is a different way to heaven than becoming a shahid, a martyr,” he said.

Rabbi Schwartz explained that although one of the purposes of the Jewish people’s exile was to disseminate belief in the Torah’s truths around the world, their return to Israel has brought with it the technology to redouble our efforts from here:
“The moment we came to Israel, communication technology flourished. The telephone and radio spread rapidly, and computers and internet came soon after, changing the entire concept of communication and education. When we were in the exile, we were there to teach the world, and now that we have returned to the Land of Israel, G-d has given us the tools to do the work from here.”

“The moment we came to Israel, communication technology flourished. The telephone and radio spread rapidly, and computers and internet came soon after, changing the entire concept of communication and education. When we were in the exile, we were there to teach the world, and now that we have returned to the Land of Israel, G-d has given us the tools to do the work from here.”

Rabbi David Zilbershlag, Director of Meir Panim and Koach Latet, both innovative charity associations, spoke about rectifying the misdeeds of Noah’s generation, the generation of the Flood. Zilbershlag said that the new Council of Noahides must focus on kindness and charity, as that was the basis of G-d’s covenant with Noah (the lack of which resulted in the destruction of Noah’s entire generation) and His later covenant with Abraham.

“It is hard to distribute and spread an idea that is negative, as the laws of Noah are phrased,” Zilbershlag said. “We must make a great effort to find and distribute the relevant positive commandments in our tradition throughout the world as well, and the most basic of these is that of following in the footsteps of Abraham our father.”

Rabbi Eliyahu Essas, a former refusenik and founder of the Teshuva (return to Judaism) movement in the USSR, spoke about establishing outreach within Israel to help gentiles who moved from the former Soviet Union to Israel become aware of the Noahide laws:

“There are at least 400,000 out of the million people who came to Israel who are not Jewish according to Jewish law. There are many who think they are Jews, but do not have a Jewish mother and are therefore not Jewish according to Jewish law. 150,000 have no blood connection to the nation of Israel – spouses of Jews and relatives who came under the Law of Return. Then there are 30,000 who have nothing to do with the Jewish people, coming with forged documents. Over there, Jews wanted to be Russians; here, Russians want to be Jews.

“Should we harass such a person to convert, should we leave him alone, or should we try to get him to become a Ben Noah?” Essas asked, refraining from offering answers and saying that such complicated matters must be dealt with by both the Noahide Council and the Sanhedrin’s B’nai Noah Beit Din. He added that the problem of intermarriage was not discussed by previous generations because it did not exist in such numbers. “We are dealing with 50% of families in the former Soviet Union and even more in North America. So if one spouse is a Jew and one is a Ben Noah, what will be their status? I want to raise these issues and offer a prayer to the Almighty to help us find wise solutions.”

Council Looking ForwardSpokesman Jim Long outlined the Council’s goals: “Education is a vital part of our effort and we need you to help us with this. We need to make sure that developing Noahide groups do not split into denominations. As we move into the public eye, we will be viewed as heretics by many. We each come from other religions and must develop ways to approach them in a manner in which they listen without closing their ears. The Noahide movement is a Torah-based template for an ethical way of life. The Creator requires humanity to uphold these laws as per His covenant with Noah.

Members of the B’nai Noah Council“Anyone who reads the Bible can see that your Torah is your constitution, your Bill of Rights and your deed to the Land of Israel. We have plans to publish Noahide prayer books, children’s books and documentaries on science and the world through the lens of the Torah.”

“We have heard that G-d is with you,” Long concluded.For more information, the Council secretary can be contacted at:dbtc@actcom.co.il

Israeli Government Involved In Noahide Conversion Via "Noahide World Center"

In 2018 Haaretz published an article on how the Israeli government is supporting a Noahide conversion program through an agency called the "Noahide World Center". The center seems to be involved with the Chabad organization as well. The article states that the Noahide Laws sets up an ethnic hierarchy with Jews above non-Jews.

Opinion:The Messianic Zionist Religion

Whose Believers Worship Judaism (But Can't Practice It) 

by Ofri Ilany - Sep 12, 2018

 https://www.haaretz.com/jewish/.premium-the-messianic-zionist-religion-that-wants-to-recruit-7-billion-members-1.6455144

The Noahide Project, which has Israeli governmental and rabbinical support, is trying to proselytize members of remote communities. Just as long as they don’t call themselves Jews, right? 

“Our friends all over the world, the Noahides… You are the lucid persons in a perplex world. You are the hope of the world. Happy good day.” Thus, in somewhat broken English, Rabbi Oury Cherki, head of the Noahide World Center, greeted his followers in a video clip on the occasion of “Humanity Day,” the holiday of the Noahides (also known as Children of Noah), which was last celebrated on the 27th day of the Hebrew month of Marheshvan (Nov. 10, 2017). According to Jewish tradition, it was on that day that Noah and his family emerged from the ark and received the seven commandments that apply to all human beings, among them the prohibitions on idol worship, on murder and on eating flesh torn from a living animal. When Noah left the ark, he built an altar and made a sacrifice. Which is why the Noahides eat grilled meat on their holiday. 

But who are these Noahides? They are members of a new religion, subordinate to Judaism, founded by rabbis from Israel, mainly from Chabad and the religious Zionist movement. According to the World Center, there are dozens of Noahide communities across the world, with more than 20,000 believers. That’s a hefty number, given that the religion was only founded at the beginning of the decade. Small Noahide communities exist in various countries, with the largest one in the Philippines. 

Cooperation between Israel and the Philippines is constantly growing, and this week reached new heights with the visit to Israel of the country’s president, Rodrigo Duterte. The Philippines are a key arena of Chabad activity, and one of the primary venues where the new religion is being disseminated. There are four Chabad centers in the country, and in addition to assisting Jews, they support 10 Noahide houses of prayer. The Hasidic emissaries view the Philippines community as the model for Noahide communities in other countries. A group from the community was brought to Israel two years ago, and its members met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has also sent his greetings to all the communities worldwide.

That there are countries in which groups and communities identify themselves as belonging to the Jewish people, or as descendants of the 10 lost tribes of Israel, is nothing new. Similarly, we’re familiar with Christians who admire Israel. But the Noahides are a theological phenomenon of very recent vintage. It’s a form of Zionist mission, which seeks to create a world religion whose believers adore the Jewish people and the State of Israel – without belonging to either. The believers are required to accept the supremacy of Judaism but are not accepted into the Jewish people and are even barred from upholding such commandments as Sabbath observance. Anyone who wishes to be a Noahide is called upon mainly to recognize the Jewish people and its state. 

Last month, Nova Religio, a journal devoted to emergent and alternative religions, published an article by Rachel Z. Feldman, assistant professor of religious studies at Franklin and Marshall College, in Pennsylvania, titled “The Children of Noah: Has Messianic Zionism Created a New World Religion?” In the summer of 2017, Feldman visited Noahide communities on the Filipino island of Cebu, which are supervised by Chabad rabbis. Like most Noahides around the world, the members of the Cebu community came mostly from Protestant churches, but had abandoned their belief in the New Testament. 

One of the groups Feldman observed lives in a mountainous, “financially challenged” rural region. In the past its members were cave dwellers who belonged to a Sabbath-observing church called Sacred Name Believers. Their leader is the Noahide preacher Emmanuel Villegas. For years he visited poor communities on various islands and converted them to the Children of Noah. He called on them to renounce Christianity and to burn their holy books – though not before cutting out the Tetragrammaton (God’s Hebrew name) from the texts.

About 20 years ago, the community’s members moved to the village of Lamac, where they built a house of worship marked with a large Israeli flag at the entrance. In accordance with the directives of Chabad rabbis, they no longer observe Shabbat, as this precept is reserved for the members of the Jewish faith alone and is denied to Noahides. They are permitted to greet each other with the words, “Happy seventh day,” but not to utter the word “Shabbat.” Instead of the Kabbalat Shabbat ceremony used by Jews to welcome the Sabbath, the Chabad rabbis invented a ritual for them in which they light seven candles (to denote the Seven Noahide Laws).

Feldman quotes one members of the community, who explained to her, “You are very lucky because you are white, and white people are rulers of the earth. But you are also a Jew. You are very gifted because you have blood from the Chosen people, from Abraham and Isaac.” In his sermons, Villegas explains why his community is forbidden to uphold Jewish commandments, and dwells on the essence of the difference between Noahides and Jews. Jews, he says, possess an inner sanctity that draws them close to a divine level: “The Jew has five levels of soul while the Noahide only has three levels and remains on an animalistic level, and this is written in the Kabbalah.” 

Noahides are incapable of reaching the level of the Jews, but they can learn how to improve themselves by way of the seven commandments. The questions-and-answers site asknoah.org also instructs the Children of Noah on how to cope with animal cravings. In the meantime, Chabad is making efforts to spread the word among non-Jews in Israel, too – a project that was introduced by the late Rabbi Boaz Kali, from Haifa. 

Ethnic hierarchy 

Liberal Jewish philosophers of the modern era, such as the German-Jewish thinker Hermann Cohen, viewed the Seven Laws of Noah as the universal basis of the Bible, which prove that Judaism contains a general moral outlook that transcends the question of the fate of the Jewish people. But the interpretation of Rabbi Cherki and the Chabad rabbis uses the Noahide precepts to lay down an ethnic hierarchy between Jews and gentiles. Feldman notes that the Noahide religion constitutes a new form of colonial relations and racial ideology in which the rabbis are shaping a new faith for the inhabitants of the “global south” as an instrument to advance religious and nationalist goals. 

Feldman points out that the first Noahide gathering, which took place in Texas in 1990, was attended by Rabbi Meir Kahane. After Kahane’s assassination, that same year, the Temple Institute, which advocates the building of the Third Temple on Jerusalem, on the site of the first two, started to promote the Noahide project. In the view of the institute’s rabbis, the gentiles’ upholding of the Seven Laws is an important stage in the messianic process at the height of which the temple will be built and Israel will become a theocracy that will gain the gentiles’ support. 

This is the world order being promoted by the Noahide Project, which has the support of Israel’s Chief Rabbinate and of the Israeli government. The Noahide theological project is closely related to Netanyahu’s foreign policy approach, which is based on religious support for Israel. As he worded the theological message he offered on Humanity Day in 2015, “The Seven Mitzvot of the Children of Noah are matters of both faith and morality, which according to our sages obligate all of the non-Jewish peoples of the world. These commandments serve as a basis for establishing a civilized society.” 

The final goal of Rabbi Cherki and the Noahide World Center, we are told, is a modest one: seven billion believers.

Noahide World Center Sets Up Community In India

According to the World Noahide Center website they have set up a Noahide community in Visakhapatnam India which is headed by Noahide convert M. Ravi Kumar. Here is a video that was taken down from the World Noahide Center's youtube channel in which the converts were asking about how to deal with their Hindu spouses who were still practicing "idolatry", an offense which is punishable by death under Noahide Law. In another video a South Indian wearing a yamaka talks about how Rabbis from the Israeli backed center will be doing Noahide studies with the Indian congregation of the Bene Ephraim (ethnic Indians). Then I have a video of an actual Israeli backed Noahide class in India..

TESTIMONY OF BETHEL NOAHIDE SOCIETY VISAKHAPATNAM, INDIA

http://noahideworldcenter.org/wp_en/testimony-of-bethel-noahide-society-visakhapatnam-india/

Before I say a few lines I would like to thank HASHEM for guiding us unto the righteous path a gentile should walk according to Torah.

My name is M. Ravi Kumar (Obadiah), born and brought up in Visakhapatnam, south coast of Andhra Pradesh, India.  Basically I was of a mixture of Hindu and Roman Catholic back ground and living a very normal life as a normal Indian would do.  My spiritual journey started in the year 1994 soon after completing my Bachelor’s Degree and Masters Degree in Computer Science when I was working with a private company.  Thought that Jesus was the Messiah and redeemer of all mankind from teir sins and that thought was strengthened by reading the New Testament of the Bible which eventually lead me to leave the job in the year 2001 and establish a church to save the souls.  Even though I would lead the Saturday and Sunday Worship Service I noticed that something was missing in my life and used to get many doubts about the way the worship was conducted emotionally and in this process began to search for the real truth.   As I was praying and seeking God to lead me in the righteous way I learned that there are many errors in the New Testament and that the prophecies quoted in the New Testament mostly are erroneous, misquoted and wrongly interpreted.  I didn’t exactly know what to do at this hour because I was the pastor of the church leading about 100 members regularly, and what would happen to me and my congregation, where am I going to land next because the Jews are not going to accept us – these were the doubts arising in my life.  Really it was a 6 month dark period of sleepless nights.  At this point Hashem miraculously connected me to Bnei Ephraim Community where I was educated by Mr. Yehoshua Yacobi of how the gentiles are obligated to keep the 7 laws of Noah.  After completing the basic Noahide Course and interaction classes I could now come to understand the will of God towards mankind and the purpose of human life on earth.

By the grace of Hashem we have founded “BETHEL NOAHIDE SOCIETY” in the month of May 2015 with a group of 25 individual families (around 60 members) – the first of its kind in India.  If it is Hashem’s will we would bring light to our country by co-partnering with Israel.

“We are two old people, some of the oldest in the nations of the earth”, as quoted by the honorable Prime Minister Netanyahu about India and Israel.

”It is not a country, it’s a union of small continents of different people with different ethnicities, languages, cultures etc…” quoted by an Israeli back packer on her trip to India.

With 330 million deities, more than 780 languages, 80% of Hindu religion [Islam, Jainism, Sikhism, Buddhism, Christianity constituting remaining part] prevailing throughout the land which literally means that 8 out of 10 houses having a deity in their homes praying  them We present to you a small community from Visakhapatnam in India who are not only familiar with the term Judaism or Jew but also realizing their responsibility as a Noahides to follow the 7 laws of Noah with the help of Brit Olam – World Noahide Centre, Jerusalem, Israel ultimately trying to reach the oneness of the one and only god i.e.. G-D OF ISRAEL. If one knows something about India they will definitely appreciate this as an incredible journey made by an unknown people of an unknown place to the known and renowned Israel even under the circumstances mentioned above. With hope and courage in their hearts these small group of more than 60 members are ready to follow the seven divine laws of Hashem under the guidance of Jews which in a way fulfills the quote of “Israel being light unto the nations” in Isaiah 49:6.  Though all this initiative is just a start towards a divine destiny we too hope that Hashem will give us strength to accomplish this task of helping the Noahides to learn the intended righteous way of living their lifes.

A letter from Obadiah (Ravi Kumar)

 Shabbat Shalom Sir,

It had been a very joyous occasion for all of us on the closing ceremony of our Noahide Project.  All of the members of the Society were deeply moved by the way the closing program went.

There was shaking of hands, congratulating each other, hugging and even some of them shed tears of how the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY had led us all through the way till now.  We all praised HASHEM for the event b’cos only through and by the gracious hand of HASHEM it would be possible and none other.

Sir I would like to thank u from the depth of my heart on behalf of the NOAHIDE SOCIETY from Vizag that u had conducted the project in a very systematic and disciplined way and guided us to the righteous path a gentile should walk according to Torah and made us to stand firm in the truth.  Thank u so much for the guidance and support extended to us and we hope that this bonding would be strengthened more in the future and may we be co-partners with the chosen people of Israel according to the will of HASHEM.

I am attaching herewith photos of the event for your records.

Thanking You,

Yours faithfully,

BETHEL NOAHIDE SOCIETY

Indian States Granting Jews Minority Status

As of 2018 the Indian states of Gujarat, Maharashtra and West Bengal have granted Jews minority status. I am not familiar with Indian law but I do believe that Muslim minority status gives them the right to practice some forms of a parallel religious legal system in India. Would this minority status allow Noahides to practice Noahide Law, opening the way for Noahide Laws in India as they have been encoded in the United States?

Jewish Telegraph Agency

"Indian state grants minority status

to its Jewish community"

JULY 10, 2018

https://www.jta.org/2018/07/10/global/indian-state-grants-minority-status-jewish-community

(JTA) — The Indian State of Gujarat granted minority status to its Jewish community.

The decision on Friday makes Gujarat the third state in India to recognize Jews as a minority community. 

The recognition means that Jews there “shall get benefits of welfare schemes formulated for religious minority communities within the jurisdiction of Gujarat,” its government said in a statement, according to the Times of India. 

Gujarat is home to about 170 Jews, mostly centered in the western city of Ahmedabad. The city also is home to the only synagogue in the state, the Magen Abraham Synagogue, built in 1934. 

Gujarat hosted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his visit to India in January. 

Maharashtra and West Bengal are the other states that have granted minority status to their Jewish communities.

Summary

India has already mysteriously expelled Chabad rabbis for the offense of "conversions". In the United State, Jewish Noahide Law has been signed as the foundation on which the nation was founded and that it is our responsibility to educate our nation and the world to return to the Noahide Laws. Around the world, including India, Noahide converts are pledging allegiance to Rabbis in Israel as a spiritually and ethnically superior people. The Israeli government is involved in conversion programs targeting Hindus in India and Jews are gaining minority status in many Indian states. If Jews were able to pass Noahide Law in the United States that supersedes our constitution, could the same happen in India? I hope some Hindus in influential positions in India will find that this situation warrants more investigation. This brief is not exhaustive. ॐ
