The idea is influenced by Jewish Rabbi Jonathan Magonet (b.1942), who considers the impact of early the Torah or Talmudic laws in the Judeo-Christian in today’s global human right ethics. Magonet’s theology unveils the relationship between a global human right ethics and Biblical-Jewish laws of the Torah or Talmudic laws.
