A man is declared righteous or unrighteous by the help of a law. Noah was declared righteous man when there was no law of Moses. How can it be? There should be some kind of law according to which a person can be judged as righteous or unrighteous. At the time of Noah, the law applied was the law of God.
The Law of God is bigger than the law of Moses or any other law. Law of Moses is a particle of biggest law of the Lord. Law of Moses is a converted law according to the people.
One day Pharisees came and asked the Lord,
"Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason?"
"..Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate." Jesus replied.
"Why then," they asked, "did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?"
Jesus replied, "Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. Matt. 19:3-8
The Law of God is converted because of the hardness of the people. When Jesus came he gave real law. It is not about how bad it is that women preach in the church. It is not about how bad it is to eat pork. We need to see the heart of God. Israelites were asked to offer sacrifices but actual thing is that God doesn't want sacrifice but mercy (Matt. 9:13)
