Court for Bnei Noah: Set of
core literature to base rulings
This
statement is part of a series of twenty requests for piskei din (legal
rulings) that have been submitted to the Beis Din by those who follow
its rulings. While full piskei
din (legal rulings) are in preparation, a brief summary is presented.
The summary below is
not meant to be used as a source for deriving any practical
consequences. It will
be replaced at a later date with a formal ruling.
On the 6th of Tevet, the Beis Din for Bnei Noah was asked:
Q. What is the set of core literature to base rulings?
What literature is considered authoritative concerning issues
of the Bnei Noach? Rambam, Meiri, Yavetz, Arizal?
Answer. All
the traditional sources and more. Of course for [rulings made by the
Beis Din for] some people, certain sources will have a higher weight
than for others, just like the differences between communities of Jews.
