The Noahide Laws
IJC Introduction

The Noahide laws comprise seven basic laws biblically binding upon all humanity. They include prohibitions on idolatry, blasphemy, forbidden sexual relationships, murder, theft, cruelty to animals and the failure to implement orderly processes of justice. Its principles were called by a joint resolution of the United States congress in 1991 "the bedrock of society from the dawn of civilization", without which "the edifice of civilization stands in serious peril of returning to chaos".

In 1998 an international conference on the Noahide laws was held in Melbourne and since then the Institute has also published a number of articles in this area. To see some of the Institute's work consult the Journals page and look at the cumulative index under "The Noahide laws". See also the newly published monograph on the Noahide laws and the Bulletin in the Noahide laws published by the Institute.
