The Talmud states: "Righteous people of all nations have a share in the world to come" (Sanhedrin 105a).

  • The Talmud states: "Righteous people of all nations have a share in the world to come" (Sanhedrin 105a). Maimonides says any non-Jew who accepts the seven commandments and is careful to perform them – this person is of the Chasidei Umos HaOlam, and has a portion in the world to come. They accept these seven commandments and performs them because they were commanded by G-d in ancient times, as revealed to us by Moshe Rabbenu. However, if the non-Jew keeps these laws because of intellectual decision – he is not called a Ger Toshav and is not of the Chasidei Umos HaOlam. He is only one of their wise men.
