Zechariah 8.22 – 8.23

Yea, many peoples and mighty nations shall come to seek HaShem of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favour of HaShem. Thus saith HaShem of hosts: In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, shall even take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying: We will go with you, for we have heard that G-d is with you. Zechariah 8.22 – 8.23

This wonderful verse foretold the time when the whole world will recognise that the Lord of Yisrael is the G-d of all. Since all Noachides keep the Torah as it was given to Yisrael, we are the remnants of the 'Righteous Gentiles' who held to the skirt of Jew and, together, sojourn with them in the path of spirituality.

However, this not always the case, such as an ideal gas will never exist, so this case will almost be a difficult one.

I personally met a Jew, whom is a not-so-good representative of world Jewry. He responded to my message in coolness and brush me off with lame excuses. I do not want to hurl any insults but I really deemed this kind of action inappropriate. Jewish should guide Gentiles in the path of spirituality and teach them as much as they can, they even have the obligation to do so (to glorifies HaShem's Name).

If I am a newly seeking Noachide and I encounter such person, what will I do? Maybe I will ditch into a nearby church and become the next Hitler.

Shalom.
