 Maimonides held that the Ger Toshav status is only applicable during a time when the 12 Jewish Tribes are ingathered and settled in their Biblically assigned territories. (In such times, the Yovel, or "Jubilee," years are able to be observed by the Jews - see Lev. 25:8-13.) Under these conditions, which will not return until the Messianic Redemption, by Torah Law a Gentile will be allowed to settle as a resident in the Holy Land if he/she appears before a Jewish court (Beis Din) and takes an oath before them that he or she will observe the Seven Noahide Laws with proper intent and faith. The court then grants this Gentile the visa status of "Ger Toshav," which includes certain additional legal privileges.

 ''Chasidei Umos HaOlam'' is the Hebrew term used by Maimonides in the Laws of Kings 8:11. It is generally translated as "Righteous Gentile". They are the "Observant Noahites".  The term indicates non-Jews who have taken upon themselves the observance of [[Noahide Law]], and do this ''because it was revealed through [[Moshe Rabbenu]]'' as explained by Jewish tradition. According to Maimonides, Chasidei Umos HaOlam are assured a portion in the world to come. This is something that is not assured for the ''[[Chochmei Umos HaOlam]]'' who also observe [[Noahide Law]], but do it for their own rational reasons rather than out of belief in Judaism. No one may be counted among the Hassidei Umot HaOlam unless through a system which was established by the Chazal while the Jubilee was still in effect (i.e. before 135CE).
