Shabbat for the Noahide: Rabbi Chaim Clorfene

[@josephrt4914]

I am so grateful i randomly came across this lecture. For 2 months I have been dealing with this argument within myself. I have rejected my previous belief system and found that the only truth and the only 1 true G-d , is learned in Torah, but i had many important folks telling me I could no longer keep Shabbat. I am so grateful that tonight I can sleep well, and i will be back to listen to more of your lectures . thank you Rabbi.

Thank you dear Rabbi. As a Noahide Shabbat observance is a major subject of discussion in my community. I personally enjoy going to the local Chabad and worship with my Jewish friends which I consider my family. I study Torah and developing deeper understanding of the laws of Noah. I respect the Shabbat rituals which are reserved for the Jewish people so I too welcome Shabbat and pray for the salvation of the Jewish people. I listen beautiful Hasidic music, study Torah watch KZbin videos like yours and honor the day. It’s very important to me to let Gd know that I understand the 7th day. Thank you 🙏🏻 Really appreciated this shiur.

I am six years late seeing this program, but I am very happy to have come across it on this Sabbath day. I was born in a Christian home and grew up as a Christian, but became dissatisfied and uncomfortable with the concept of worshipping jesus as god when I realized that is what it amounts to. My search took me to studying the ' old testament ' and I rediscovered the concept of the Noahide laws and I began to study and adapt its principles and ways. Thanks be to G-D I have finally found a home for my life and Soul.

A true Niahide is not allowed to keep Jewish Sabbath. A Noahide Sabbath is Sunday. Non -Noahites will have no sabbath.... because they are not worthy of rest... they are considered slaves. Do your researcb. Read the sub-laws. I have this rabbie's first book. There is much in Google to find their own writtings. Whether a Jew by conversion, or a Noahide, as long as you are a gentile you are not as worthy a person as a born Jew. The Seven Noahide Laws are only similar to the laws God gave Noah. The interpretation and additions to that law are all rabbic Judaism based on the Talmud... not the Holy scriptures of Bible. Beheading is their favorite punishment for those who break their laws... Noahites also fall under those laws. Do your resesrch! ,

[@KitnFrance]

I know this video is long ago, but I began keeping Shabbat while I was still in the Pentecostal church. I felt convicted in my soul by Hashem to honor His holy day of rest and to keep that day as a day of rest for my family. I continued to keep Shabbat when I became Messianic... and I continued to keep Shabbat when we became Noahides, completely leaving the Christian church behind. Yet, when you read works in the Noahide communities and online forums there is a mixed idea of Shabbat being only for Jews or it being for Noahides as well. Just like keeping the laws of Noah because Hashem has convicted you and commanded you, IF Hashem convicts you to honor Shabbat or even to cover your hair, your honor to Hashem supercedes anything someone else thinks is right or wrong. We don't answer to man, we answer to Hashem.

[@YairBorici]

What Rabbi Chaim Clorfene described starting at 58:55, that God gave the world a soul via Shabbat, aligns beautifully with the spiritual essence of Shabbat as articulated by both Rambam (Maimonides) and Abraham Joshua Heschel. The idea that God "rested" on Shabbat, which can be interpreted as "refreshing" or imbuing creation with a soul, reflects a deep understanding of the spiritual dimension of the seventh day. In "The Sabbath: Its Meaning for Modern Man," Heschel writes that the Sabbath is a "sanctuary in time." He frames it as a day not merely of rest but of spiritual re-centering, where the world transcends the mundane and enters into a state of holiness. Both perspectives, I think-Rambam’s rational and halakhic approach and Heschel’s poetic and philosophical view-converge on the idea that Shabbat is not merely about physical rest but about spiritual elevation. It’s a time when creation reconnects to its divine purpose, and humanity is invited to partake in this sanctification. For a Noahide, therefore, Shabbat provides a framework for understanding how rest and spiritual reflection are part of the divine rhythm of the universe, accessible to all who seek connection with God. The mechanism, the how, may obviously vary in terms of prayers uttered, etc., but the philosophical, spiritual connection remains universal.

This Rabbi is lying his teeth out. Jesus exposed this sabbath fraud. The sabbath was not a time of rest but a moment to reflect on oneself and what he or she did wrong in his or her past life. Remember, that, Isaac had gone into the field to meditate. What these European Jews don't mention in the Torah is that Moses had no clear decision as to what to do to a man some men found that they say, was gathering sticks. This sabbath had no penalty. Read the book of Genesis and Numbers.

@@alk158 I think enforcement might come after tge Tempke is built and tge Man if Sin is revealed. I suspect the UN or type will enforce but at lical levels tge Noahide courrs will be run by local rabbis. Christiansxwho do nit deny Jesus will be put to death by beheading. Some Jews,and Muslems are making alignments with each other, and the Pope says the Muslim god, Allah, is the same God that the Jews and Christians worship. Which of course this is not so. And recently the pope has said something to the effect that it doesnt matter what we believe because we are all God's children. When you couple this along with the fact that both Shiria Law and Noahide Law uses death by beheading as a punishment for not denying Jesus as Lord, Son of God, diety, etc., you can assertain how these laws will be enforced. Another interesting point is that Free Masonry upholds the Noahide Laws.

I have a different situation. I am not Jewish, but I committed idolatry first, but I would not consider myself an idolater because I thought I was doing the right thing, and found out that for a few seconds I had done something terrible, and then I spoke to Hashem, and found out just how messed up I was. Hashem told me, "I AM punishing you," which to me meant that there was reason and order to the planet and all I had to do was find it for a lifetime. First I looked to the Christians, but it didn't elevate my soul. Christians did mostly seem like they were good people. I had a Christian upbringing, without selling my soul to Jesus. I can remember my mom saying when I started to study Christianity, "Nobody believes that crap," so I studied and found that I agreed with her, but she still goes to church. I don't, except for 1 day a year to sing Christmas carols, and no I don't believe in the words and try to make that very clear. I have tried Judaism, and I agree with it mostly. I found this video informative. I know it is truth because it sits well with my heart because I know that G-d can forgive any sin, but one He often doesn't is failure to study, according to Tanya. It meant the world to me knowing that there was a G-d out there who actually cared about what I do, and in this case; He had visited me when I was sick. It was as if I was forced into it. Why? What makes me different that I should be pardoned? I have been diagnosed with schizo-affective (it was as if I was in a war, I thought people were dying all the time but they would come back. Later I thought the world had turned to cannibalism, and I saw things while I was hallucinating that G-d told me were assholes, which was a brain with a digestive system on the prowl to eat themselves into a new body. I thought people who walked to the back of the store in the mall would get sucked through tubes that would lead to the food court as meat in the mall), autism (I was professionally tested for auditory comprehension and was in the bottom 1% of people), I also have a very bad milk and milk product allergy which if I have a drop of milk it affects me for 2 weeks even with digestive aides and makes it so I can't even put a sentence together, sleep apnea (I slept 45 minutes the night of the test and had 54 apneas before waking up). I was told that it was as if I got 1hr of sleep a night for many years on end), and anxiety. I wanted to die and would have committed suicide but was to afraid that if I did someone would scrap me up off the pavement and put me back together even worse than I already was. What I had learned is that the punishments Hashem deals in His infinite power, can make one suffer infinitely, but He will take them away upon repentance. My medications alone cost $50,000 a year. I could go on, but I think I made my point. My life was bad. I got confused over what is bad and what it good. Idolatry, I find to be the most hateful thing I have ever done. I moved out of there, and don't even want to go back at all because it sets me off with breakthrough psychosis just driving through that area, as in I won't even drive through that state. By now you might be getting the idea of why I found my way to the Jews. I wanted to be with Holocaust survivors because I felt like we may share a few things in common. With the help of Hashem my doctor tells me that if I "Walked into his office today, he would even know there is something wrong." There is no comparison to a live of worship of Hashem, even if it is only fear and/or awe of His infinite power, because He is G-d, and we have Torah, which is all we need. For the greatness of the way He has rewarded me it makes no sense to me or anyone else to reject Him.

Ok, so if the Jew is giving non-kosher meat to the ger, that doesn't mean meat designated in Leviticus as unclean, right? Because a Jew wouldn't even have pork or other biblically designated unclean animal (per Leviticus 11, isn't it?) in his possession, is that correct? Non-kosher in this context is referring to other kosher laws such as slaughtering practices, how the animal died, etc. Am I understanding that correctly?

CASE IN POINT: Torah was specifically given to the children of Israel as Abba prophesied to Abraham 430 years before the israelites entered Egypt. After the exile of Egypt, Gd gave the Torah to Moses to make a covenant with "Israel" alone, however WHOEVER joined Israel as resident alien or foreigner was mandated to keep such Laws. During the time when Israel became a nation, the resident aliens ( non Jews) and foreigners who became part of the commonwealth of Israel were also mandated to keep Torah just like native Israelite. Otherwise, they will pay the penalty of death if they break any Law in Torah. So, what is the difference now? NONE. Stop twisting the Torah or Tanakh trying to find an angle to fit your lifestyle or belief. Israel has been prophesied to be the light of the nations and who whoever righteous gentile Abba will bring in must obey the Torah. If a gentile thinks that they can become the light to the nations or be a light to themselves is completely a "wrong direction" just like the Christians decided to become the light to the nation opposing Abba's purpose. They took the wrong door by twisting the the Scripture to make it fit to their religion with a theology replacement of "spiritual Israel. The creator never said "i will make a covenant with Israel and another covenant with the gentiles" ?. Nope. The Messiah is coming to confirm the covenant given to the children of Israel and to fulfill the purpose of Hashem forever. No more waiting and whoever stays out is out for good. Do not be deceived what Rabbis say or teach. Read the word yourself and make a decision of what is the truth. Otherwise you won't make it to the Messianic age when Israel is fully restored. I am a Jew myself by birth and I don't believe in men but in the word of Hashem alone.

Having studied Torah & Scriptures for over 60 year's, I always refer other enquiring persons to The Genesis origins of God's Sabbath , then the Exodus Ten Commandments given to Moses, on the Holy Mountain, to the children of Israel. I have no know Jewish heritage. In saying that I do respect the Jewish obligation to Torah for The Children of Israel, as God's chosen Nation.

[@TheJohannloots]

Mr Graef, you can call me what you like, it will not change the Word of YAHUAH (God). I didn't say, God Himself said: I am the Only One, there is no one beside me (Deut. 4:35, 39; 6:4; 1Kings 8:60; Isaiah 45:5-6, 18; 46:9-10; Nehemiah 9:6) I am the Only Healer (Exodus 15:26; 23:25) I am the Only Saviour (Isaiah 43:11; 45:20-22; Hosea 13:4) He said that His Name is YAHUAH, my esteem I do not give to another, nor my praise to idols (Isaiah 42:8). He categorically said that He is not man, nor the son of man (Numbers 23:19). Which one of these Statements do you not understand. You see my friend, you are calling God a liar, cause you don't believe what He said. He also said: I am the first and the last, beside me there is no other Elohim (God) (Isaiah 41:4; 44:6; 48:12) He also said you do not bow yourselves to another mighty one, for YAHUAH, whose name is jealous, is a jealous El (Exodus 34:14; Deut 7:25; Jer 25:6-7) You see my friend, you like all other Christian idolaters have a serious problem. Read all the Scripture references for yourself. It has nothing to do with religion. Calling YAHUAH a Talmudic hashem GOD is blasphemous. Mate you need to read those Scripture references and repent. That is the only way. Your false God called Jesus cannot save you from your sin. Calling me wicked and coming from an old age cult of antimessiah is just showing your ignorance. You do not even understand the Bible, cause if you did you would have realised that you are committing idolatry. Repent and come to the truth of the Word of God.

Keeping Shabbat is not about rest. Nothing prohibits a non-Jew from resting on Shabbat. The non-jew who is an idolater profains the shabbat if he or she attempts to observe it as a Jew.

As a Christian, if I profess to a Jew, "Praise [name of Hashem], Jesus Christ is the son of [name of Hashem]" would that go against the Noahide law of blaspheme and be subject to the Leviticus law where I should be put to death? I mean no disrespect, rather clear understanding.

[@BertGraef]

Luke Wilbur this is a wicked religion of antichrist. 1 John 2:22, 1 John 4:3, 2 John 7. No Noahide laws exist in Torah. This Noahide nonsense is intended to deceive , that's all. Fake as can be and utterly corrupt and a filthy lie. Try finding the 7 Noahide laws in Torah. These people are just lying, like their real Father, father of lies. John 8:44. They refuse to tell me where these 7 Noahide laws are found in Torah. That should be a realwake up call.

[@LukeWilbur]

Hey Bert. First, thanks for responding. I was watching this weeks episode of A.D. on NBC and was thinking about this topic. Do you think the Apostles gave Noahide laws to Paul for gentiles like us to follow? (Acts 15:1-31

[@BertGraef]

No, Noahidism is an evil invented religion of the rabbis which makes those who follow Jesus, "idolaters". Jesus is an idol according to them. This is a very wicked and blasphemous cult that these Jews who hate and deny Christ want to drag people into. The Apostles never gave these 7 laws to the gentiles.

[@LukeWilbur]

I understand that Jews do not believe in Jesus Christ as their Savior. I am stating that the Noahide law is similar to what the Apostles considered important for Gentiles to follow. Acts 15:28 For it seemed best to the Holy Spirit and to us not to place any greater burden on you than these necessary rules: 15:29 that you abstain from meat that has been sacrificed to idols and from blood and from what has been strangled and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from doing these things, you will do well.

[@BertGraef]

Luke Wilbur No ,its not similar. The cardinal Noahide law is abstention from idolatry. And Judaism claims Jesus is an idol , and they actually are the "suffering servant" of Isiaiah 53 and Christians are therefore idolaters. It is not in any way shape or form , the message preached by the Apostles to the gentiles, for they preached Christ first, and a belief in Him, and these three rules . Noahidism is a total lie and Talmudic invention and antichristianity.

why is there a Talmudic curse( Sanhedrin 97b) on any Jew who tries to do the grade 5 math behind Daniel 9:24-27?

And Rashi therefore had to explain this prophecy away by completely butchering it, so Jews have been misled ever since?

[@DCWelker]

The problem I have with many of these Noahide pushing people is they don't consider what our own Holy books say in regards to us, particularly Christians, keeping the Sabbath. According to the Holy Bible, Those who love and believe in Yeshua as Lord and savior are grafted spiritually into Israel (Romans 11:11-31). Those of us who are saved in Christianity are the seed of Abraham and heirs to his promise (Galatians 3:26-29). Most Christians believe the Sabbath was nailed to the Cross, but neglect important passages like Hebrews 4:1-11 that tell us we need to be keeping the Sabbath. That is my rant on that. God bless.

[@BertGraef]

I am not grafted into this dammable cult from hell that calls Jesus an idol. They are the furthest thing from Abrahams seed. Why are you bowing down to these louts and liars?

The sad fact is that rabbinic Judaism have made up thousands of their own laws to supersede scripture. In other words, humans who pushed the laws and Words of the Almighty aside and replaced it with their own laws, blatantly ignoring the warnings to Never add to or take away from Scripture, plus there is just ONE set of laws / Torah, for ALL PEOPLE; Deu 4:2 “Do not add to the Word which I command you, and do not take away from it, so as to guard the commands of יהוה your Elohim which I am commanding you. See also Deu 12:32, Pro 30:6. Num 15:15-16 One law is for you of the assembly and for the stranger who sojourns with you - a law forever throughout your generations. As you are, so is the stranger before יהוה. One Torah and one right-ruling is for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you.’ ” SCRIPTURE NEVER SPEAKS OF “NOAHIDES”. EVER. To the Creator you are either grafted into Yisrael, or not. Ezk 47:22-23 “And it shall be that you divide it by lot as an inheritance for yourselves, and for the strangers who sojourn in your midst and who bear children among you. And they shall be to you as native-born among the children of Yisra’ěl - with you they have an inheritance in the midst of the tribes of Yisra’ěl. “And it shall be that in whatever tribe the stranger sojourns, there you give him his inheritance,” declares the Master יהוה. See also: Isa 14:1, Isa 56:6-8. Furthermore, in the future city of the great King, there are exactly 12 entrances. Each of those entrances have been named according to one of the twelve tribes of Yisrael. Since the Exodus, whosoever wished to join Yisrael and join in covenant with Elohim, either choose which tribe they wanted to join or else the elders added them to a tribe. They were then official members of that tribe and received an equal inheritance with them. In the future, they would then enter the city described below, through the gate of their tribe. THERE IS NO GATE FOR NOAHIDES!!! Or gentiles, or Christians, or anything else!!!!!! Ezk 48:30-35 “And these are the exits of the city, the gates of the city according to the names of the tribes of Yisra’ěl: On the north side, measuring four thousand five hundred cubits, the three gates northward: one gate for Re’uḇěn, one gate for Yehuḏah, one gate for Lěwi. “And on the east side, four thousand five hundred cubits, three gates: one gate for Yosěph, one gate for Binyamin, one gate for Dan. “And on the south side, measuring four thousand five hundred cubits, three gates: one gate for Shim‛on, one gate for Yissasḵar, one gate for Zeḇulun. “And on the west side, four thousand five hundred cubits with their three gates: one gate for Gaḏ, one gate for Ashěr, one gate for Naphtali. “All around: eighteen thousand cubits. And the name of the city from that day is: יהוה is there!” Besides it being terribly sad that Judiasm has changed Scripture to make themselves exclusive, this is violating and changing the Words of the Almighty, and that shall NEVER go unpunished.

Interpreting the edict of the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15 on the basis of the much later Noachide laws is both anachronistic and a misunderstanding of the function of the Noachide laws in the post-destruction, emerging rabbinic Judaisms. For not only did the formulation of the Noachide Laws await the post-destruction era, but even when they were tormulated within the rabbinic theology of the much later centuries, no they alla not function as a separate body of laws given to Gentiles as a means of «che a attaining a rightepus status, nor even as an actual code of ethics for Gentiles. It is or Wrong, then, to conclude that the Jerusalem council gave the gentile believers a minimal list of commandments, exempting them from the full expression of God's will in the Torah.
