Briefly, it appears that he holds that the "7 MB"N" refer to the 7 that can be learned out from p'sukim, but there are other mitzvos that gentiles are obligated in that are "derech remez" or "m'pi hakabala". He has some interesting sources.<BR/><BR/>Mareh makom ani lachem.

Now I recognize that not everyone necessarily agrees with the chinuch and within this specific point it is not clear that all rishonim agree that lo sachmod is based on gezel ve-ein kan mekomo. But I think this approach is fairly muchrach from the sugyos in perek arba misos. For purposes of this discussion, even if you say 7 is lav davka, I think what it means is that there are 7 categories and more may be included in one category but not that there are more than the 7 categories. The gemara in Sanhedrin itself asks this question when it is suggested that there are more than 7 mitzvos. Again if you cant fit into a category. Thus, since mechusar aiver would arguably NOT fit into any existing categories Tosfos' question is still valid.<BR/><BR/> One other approach is that perhaps there can be issurim for benei noach which are not within the categories (e.g. hitting a yisrael -- see Rambam perek 10 of melachim). THe ohr sameach seems to divide the issurim into true issurim that fall within the major categories for which there is a chiyuv misah which beis din is mandated to implement and other issurim learned out from pesukim. perhaps mechusar eiver falls into that category. More to say but I will stop for now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20173285.post-1162243152148471452006-10-30T16:19:00.000-05:002006-10-30T16:19:00.000-05:00I stand corrected about the posuk but I still thin...I stand corrected about the posuk but I still think that it is common sense that in the same maner one wouldn't give an animal missing a leg to a king one surely can't give it to king of all kings.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20173285.post-1162242779231741292006-10-30T16:12:00.000-05:002006-10-30T16:12:00.000-05:00Yehudah, you are not quoting the right pasuk - aye...Yehudah, you are not quoting the right pasuk - ayen sham.
