Book excerpt: This book aims to help a person determine the ways to achieve righteousness in the eyes of God and a closer personal relationship with Him. To succeed in this, a person needs knowledge of what qualities and traits of character should be developed. Following the paths described in this work, each person will be able to discover and nurture that "image of God" in which he was created. In response to the sincere effort to go in these ways, Heaven will help and reward him. As more people seek spiritual Truth and intimacy with the Creator, it is vital to disseminate this knowledge. The risk is great if a person does not have sufficient knowledge and understanding of what behavior is appreciated by the Almighty. The Seven Commandments of the Descendants of Noah are a similar reference point. We will not explain theb Seven Commandments; that is our book called The Divine Code. The present work is about the ways of morality that a person should choose based on common sense in order to reveal the "image of God" in which he was created, and also to see this in another person. Inspiration for this work was the "Knowledge Book" of the great sage Rabbi Moshe Ben Maimon (1135-1204 AD), also known as Maimonides or Rambam. This is the first of the fourteen volumes of his work Mishneh Torah, which codified the laws of the Oral Torah. Rambam explained the ways of the Torah leading to Truth and Knowledge. Therefore, the main provisions of our book are taken from the lofty sayings of Rambam, and in some cases supplemented and explained by them, in order to present these explanations specifically for readers of the Peoples of the World who wish to acquire the qualities of righteousness. Know that it is impossible to fit within the boundaries of the book all the desired qualities and virtues, as well as all the ways to achieve them. The purpose is to acquaint the reader in general terms with the true judgments concerning the behavior of a righteous person.
