Various [[rabbinic literature|rabbinic sources]] have different positions on the way the seven laws are to be subdivided in categories, but the general consensus is that the seven laws are broad categories containing within them many subdivisions and further divided into specific laws. [[Maimonides]] (Melakhim The comparison is between the 10:6) lists one additional Noahide commandment forbidding commandments and the coupling of different kinds of animals and 613 specific laws, to 7 the mixing of trees. Maimonides commentator Radbaz expressed surprise that he left out castration Noahide laws and sorcery which were listed in the Talmud a much larger (Sanhedrin 56bnot specified)number of specific laws.

The [[tenth century]] Rabbi [[Saadia Gaon]] included [[tithe]]s Expansion and [[levirate marriage]]. The [[eleventh century]] Rav Nissim Gaon states that all religious acts which can be understood through human reasoning are obligatory upon Jew and Gentile alike. According categorization is not the only way to this reasoning, he included "listening expand Noahide Law to God's Voice"cover every legislative area, additional laws are also made by "knowing God" and "serving Goddecree". The This is discussed further in [[fourteenth century]] Rabbi [[Nissim Imperative of Gerona|Nissim ben Reuben GerondiLegal System]] included the commandment of charity.

The [[sixteenth century]] work ''Asarah Maamarot'' by Rabbi Even so, Maimonides claims there is a relationship between the six laws and the [[Menahem Azariah Imperative of FanoLegal System]] (Rema mi-Fano) enumerates thirty commandments, listing the latter twenty-three as extensions of the original seven. Another commentator being used to enforce (''Kol Hidushei Maharitz Chayess'' I, end Ch. 10define and limit) suggests these are not related to the first seven, nor based on Scripture, but were passed down by oral tradition. The number thirty derives from the statement of the Talmudic sage Ulla in tractate Hullin 92a, though he lists only three other rules in addition to the original seven, consisting of the prohibitions against homosexuality and cannibalism, as well as the imperative to honor the Torahformer.

TheftWhen the Noahites were enjoined concerning Justice, robbery and stealing covers they were put under obligation to create legal arrangements .... It is incumbent on the judges to draw up rules of equity that shall be appropriate understanding of other personsfor that particular country, as exemplified by the manner in which this matter is handled currently by the nations, severally. Likewise, their property it is incumbent upon merchants and their rights. The establishment of courts of justice promotes upon the value members of the responsibility of a corporate society of people trades to enforce these laws establish regulations for themselves... and define these termswhatever emerges as the law in this manner is law, as much as that which is written in the Bible. Furthermore, anyone violating this law violates Scripture, because Scripture commands the individual to accept the decisions of the contemporary jurists. The refusal to engage in unnecessary lust or cruelty demonstrates respect for dictum, "The law of the [[Creation (theology)|Creation]] itself as renewed after land is the FloodLaw," relates to this concept. <ref>Quoted by Reuben Margolioth, Margolioth Hayarn.

==Rabbi Aaron LictensteinLichtenstein==

In Rabbi Aaron LictensteinLichtenstein's opinion it is possible to defines all seven laws with the view towards establishing the extent to which they, severally, correspond to the Jewish law directed at Jews. His study seeks to resolve the question raised in the correspondence as to the categorization of the Laws of Noah. He sought to prove that the earliest sources on Noahism, and the writers who deal with these sources conscientiously, view the seven categories as subject heads for a mass of legal dicta. Similarly it weeks to prove that the volume of Noahide Law is greater - when compared to the volume of Israelite Law - than a ratio of 7 to 613 would indicate. The following chapters, then, will demonstrate the breadth of Noahic legislation.<ref>[[Aaron Lichtenstein|Lichtenstein, Aaron]]. "The Seven Laws of Noah".
