Course 1: The Original Divine Revelation
COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course is for people who come from any religious background. It will first explain God's giving of the Torah to Moses and the Jewish people, which included the Seven Universal Noahide Commandments for all mankind. We will explore the ways that God uplifts mankind and any individual through these Seven Commandments, and the branches of personal and societal morality and ethics that logically branch out from them. To further understand this, the course will introduce the earlier origins of the Noahide Commandments, which can be found in the Book of Genesis. We will examine how they presuppose a belief in the One God from the perspective of Torah. We will also cover the related topic of true prophecy, including the unique and public Divine revelation to Moses during the assembly of the estimated three million Jews who experienced God speaking at Mount Sinai. We will highlight the rationale by which this leads to a faith based on knowledge.
The mission to perfect the world through the Seven Noahide Commandments was entrusted to Non-Jews as well when God gave the Torah. This course will make clear that everyone has the ability to help make God’s purpose and goal for creation a reality. Since Biblical times, a Non-Jew's search to live a life that is objectively moral and good is first and foremost founded upon the Noahide Code.

Hi,I need the scripture references,ie where are the commandments are written on the first day of creation?
Genesis 2:16
The Talmud explains how all of the 7 Noahide Commandments are encoded within the Hebrew text of Gen. 2:16. This was spoken by G-d on the day that Adam was created, which was the 6th Day of Creation.

Can there be more than one correct answer in a multiple choice question? Thanks
Shalom Thomas.
Only one correct answer per quiz!
Some answers may be also right but there is only one answer to the specific question.
Let me know if you have any further questions!
You may also post your questions in the Course Forum!
Pls am I in this course?
Yes
Hi, how do you ‘retake’ the course if you have failed a quiz 3 times?
B’’H.
Shalom! I failed quiz number 4 (I got 3 out of 5). Is it possible to take the quiz a third time?
Yes.
Are the audio lessons the same as the video lectures?! I watched all the videos & completed the quizzes but it only marks 76% complete?!
Plus, I failed two quizzes, how can we see the correct answers?! Some of the choices are too similar.
Shalom Erik. Yes the audio lessons are generally the same as the video lessons. They are there to allow you to hear the classes on your mobile phone or when you cannot watch the video lessons!
Best
Rabbi Perets
The audio lessons are generally the same as the video lessons. We need still to mark them as complete in order to get 100%. You can re-take the quizzes 3 times. In order to know what is the right answer you may post the question on the Forum here: http://www.noahide-academy.com/forums/ or send us an email.
What will happen to me as a gentile when the Noahites come to power?
B”H. The Noahide movement is happening at this time in history because we are now so close to the prophesied Messianic Era. About this, it is taught in Maimonides’ “Mishneh Torah,” Laws of Kings 12:5, “In that era, there will be neither famine or war, envy or competition for good will flow in abundance and all the delights will be freely available as dust. The occupation of the entire world will be solely to know G-d.” That is when all the Gentile nations will be serving G-d properly through observance of their Seven Noahide Commandments, under the oversight of the Messianic king, a descendant of David and Solomon, who will rule from Jerusalem over the peaceful and perfected world with his spirit of Divinely-inspired wisdom and prophecy. In that time, the evil inclination will be removed from all people, so there will be no need for any type of correctional systems. The courts will adjudicate matters of cooperation and peace.
