We have all been told at one point in time that the Ger Toshav does not exist today. The truth of the matter is that this is only half-true. There are some types of Ger Toshav that in fact do exist today, i.e. those not connected to the Jubilee Year. However, when one fully looks into the subject matter of Ger Toshav, one will soon realize that the writings of the sages are unified and that Ger Toshav (non-Jubilee) is a real person as represented through halacha for today's Torah world.
