'''Chochmei Umos HaOlam''' ('''חוכמי אומות העולם''' generally translated as "[[Mages]]" or "Wise of the Nations") is the Maimonidian term for Noahites taken from the Laws of Kings 8:11for "Noahites" or "Noachites" also known as "Noahides" who do not believe in Judaism. They are like According to [[Halakhic Judaism]], as expressed in the [Hagarim[Talmud]] but , the Noahide Laws apply to all humanity through mankind's ''spiritual'' descent from one paternal ancestor who have taken no in Hebrew tradition is called [[Oath BrithNoah]] (the head of the only family to survive during [[TevilahDeluge (mythology)|The Flood]] even if they send offerings as Augustus Caesar did for example). The Hence in the Oral Torah refers to them as , בני נח ''[[B'Bnei nei Noah]]'''.

Chokhmei Umoth HaOlam are [[Hagarim]] who have ''not'' taken the [[Oath Brith]] [[Tevilah]] even if they send offerings as Augustus Caesar did for example. The terms indicate non-Jews who have taken upon themselves the observance of [[Noahide Law]] for their own rational reasons. Maimonides seems to imply that ''Chochmei Umos HaOlam'' do not have a portion in the world to come, although he doesn't actual actually say that. The implication therefore is that they will be judged according to their merits.
Compare this with [[Tzadikei Umos HaOlam]] and [[Chasidei Umos HaOlam]] who observe the [[seven laws]] because they were revealed through [[Moshe Rabbenu]] as explained by Jewish tradition.
In Judaism these are the "Noahites" or "Noachites" also known as "Noahides". According to [[Halakhic Judaism]], as expressed in the [[Talmud]], the Noahide Laws apply to all humanity through mankind's descent from one paternal ancestor who in Hebrew tradition is called [[Noah]] (the head of the only family to survive during [[Deluge (mythology)|The Flood]]). In Judaism, בני נח ''[[B'nei Noah]]'' ([[Hebrew language|Hebrew]], "Descendants of Noah", "Children of Noah") refers to all of mankind.
In Jewish tradition, the terms ''Ben Noach'' - Son of Noah or ''Bat Noach'' - Daughter of Noah is used to refer to a generic human being. There are seven [[noahide laws]] that are applicable for all humanity, regardless of culture or ethnicity. Technically the term ''Ben Noach'' or ''Bat Noach'' does not necessarily mean that an individually keeps the [[noahide laws]], however in most modern usage this is implied. Orthography: People familiar with the Hebrew letter 'ח' - Khet usually spell the word NOACHIDE, otherwise it is spelled often NOAHIDE for the convenience of English speakers.
The first category is the gentile who fulfills his obligations as an ethical monotheist. This person is generally called a Ben Noach (or Noachide) meaning a proud descendant of the biblical Noah. In the Jewish tradition Noah and his sons were commanded to fulfill seven commandments which amount to ethical monotheism [see Aaron Lichtenstein, The Seven Laws of Noah] Those gentiles who observe these commandments are considered righteous gentiles. They are, however, not Jews and are not considered part of Jewish society. They are righteous people and recognized for their accomplishments. However, they remain part of the human brotherhood but not part of Jewish society.
There are those who go beyond this step and approach a Jewish court and, in exchange for entering Jewish society, they vow to observe their commandments and be ethical monotheists. Such a person is called a Ger Toshav.
