On the 29th of Sivan, for the first time in Japan, a wedding was celebrated according to Jewish Halacha for the Bnei Noah community. The wedding took place in the city of Kyoto by the Shluchim Rabbi Binyomin Edery, the Chief Rabbi to Japan and Rabbi Moti Grumech, the Shliach of the Rebbe MH”M to the city Kyoto.
The groom gave a ring to the bride and said, “Behold, you are betrothed unto me according to the Laws of Moses as they relate to B’nai Noach, the Children of Noah. I pledge to lead my life according to the Torah of Moses as it relates to B’nai Noach.”
The Rebbe MH”H declares: Promoting God’s unity among the nations of the world is preparing the world for the coming of the Moshiach.
When the B’nei Noach wanted to get married, they approached the Rabbi and asked, “How should we get married? Not as a Christian or as a Shinto.”
In our holy Torah there is a source and an answer to the above question. The Torah teaches every person how to lead their own lives, even to the smallest detail. It is with the awareness that G-d is watching us and bringing us to renewed life at every moment.
The Jewish community and the many visiting tourists who were present at the event shed tears of excitement and repeatedly were heard saying: “Such an event, it really is the days of the Moshiach!”
The most exciting moment was the declaration the bride and groom made together under the canopy about the observance of the 7 mitzvot of the sons of Noah, in Japanese.
