It is often to hear that \u2018for transgression any of the Seven Commandments there can be the death penalty\u2019, but it is not an adequate answer. It is an answer in the such a sense that, for example, according the Torah, for the breaking Shabbat there is the death penalty. But this is the theoretical thing \u2013 i.e. theoretically it may be but there is not such a thing in practical.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, in principle, punishment for Bnei Noah will be established the Bnei Noah, their communities by themselves. They can decide what specifically things will be punishable. For example, murder or theft are punishable without doubts. Wherein Bnei Noah by by themselves can decide that some actions \u2013 because they are not considered as a transgressions (idolatry for example) will not be punishable by human court. Although, theoretically, for idolatry the Jews can be punished by death but this has not happened for the last centuries.<\/p>\n<p>In general, all things which were mentioned in literature about Ben Noah\u2019s punishment, perhaps don\u2019t underline enough that it is only the theoretical thing \u2013 like the punishment for Jews for breaking the Shabbat or for idolatry. But this is not the practical thing \u2013 in any sense \u2013 thus people were frightened fully in vain. That\u2019s why in real world today there is no punishment for Bnei Noah from Bnei Noah community because such a punishment can appear only when Bnei Noah will be have their own state, which can establish a punishment for murder or for theft, or for something else. I think we just need to withdraw from the discussion.<\/p>\n<p><em>Pinkhas Polonsky<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: What punishment is for those who breaks the Seven Commandments?
