There are 8 Mitzvos with the pattern of

- Any silver or gold that was used for an idol is forbidden.
- One may not bring anything from an idol into ones home.

***
- After eating one is obligated to thank Hashem with Blessings.
- There is a special Mitzva to love a convert who forsakes his past & becomes a genuine Jew.

- Fear Hashem
- Serve Hashem , for example with your heart as you pray.
- Cling to Hashem by becoming close to Torah Sages.
- Only swear with Hashems name when there is no alternative.
Now may be a good time for a gem of Torah study.
