The "Encyclopedia Talmudit", edited by rabbi Shlomo Yosef Zevin, states that after the giving of the Torah, the Jewish people were no longer included in the category of the sons of Noah; however, Maimonides ("Mishneh Torah", "Hilkhot M'lakhim" 9:1) indicates that the seven commandments are also part of the Torah, and the Babylonian Talmud ("Sanhedrin" 59a, see also Tosafot ad. loc.) states that Jews are obligated in all things that gentiles are obligated in, albeit with some differences in the details. According to the "Encyclopedia Talmudit", most medieval Jewish authorities considered that all the seven commandments were given to Adam, although Maimonides ("Mishneh Torah", "Hilkhot M'lakhim" 9:1) considered the dietary law to have been given to Noah.
