What is Nouhi? A Noah is a non-Jew, or a non-Jew, or what is known as a "Goi", which are different names for a non- Jew, who follows the provisions of the Torah that apply to him. Well, non- Jewish, Joey, all these terms you mentioned are synonyms. They all mean the same thing. So, there are Jews and there are non- Jews. Jews must follow the Torah's provisions that apply to them. Of the 613 laws we have, today we can only follow about 35% to 40% of them, because we do not have the Temple (Beit HaMikdash). However, there are many rules that Jews must adhere to, such as keeping the Sabbath, kosher, family purity, etc. As for non- Jews, they have seven Noahite laws. These seven rules are divided into approximately 55 to 60 rules, all of which are moral rules. They are all ethical. They all make sense. As you know, do not worship idols, do not kill , do not rape, and so on . Do not steal. Now, if a non-Jew adheres to the laws of Noah, which are the laws of the Torah that apply to non-Jews because God commanded them, he will enter Paradise. But if he adheres to it simply because it makes sense to him, and not because God commanded it , he will not enter Paradise. The essence of the matter lies in adhering to the laws because God commanded them. Because that means submitting to God. Once you submit to God, you are on the right path.
