Question
Do
you know approximately how many people convert to Judaism worldwide? Answer I
believe the number is about 10,000 annually. The number is small, because
a person does not need to become Jewish to reach high spiritual levels. The Torah
(as explained in the Talmud - Sanhedrin 58b) presents seven mitzvot for non-Jews
to observe. These seven laws are the pillars of human civilization, and are named
the "Seven Laws of Noah," since all humans are descended from Noah.
