"From the very days of your fathers you have turned away from My laws and have not observed them. Turn back to Me, and I will turn back to you -- said the L-RD of Hosts. But you ask, 'How shall we turn back?"
(Malachi 3:7, JPS Tanach)
"Listen to me... you who seek the L-RD: Look to the rock you were hewn from, to the quarry you were dug from. Look back to Avraham your father..."
(Isaiah 51:1-2)
Judaism, Christianity and Islam look back to Avraham as the Patriarch of their religions. Avraham devoted his life to refuting idolatry and confronting falsehood, to bring clarity to true faith in the source of all creation. He risked his life to teach monotheism to ALL members of the human race.
The Seven Laws of Noah guided his relationship with G-d and they are the measuring stick by which all nations must examine their beliefs and behavior.
