Leviticus, Part 1 edited by Charles Wengrov Pub. Feldheim New York, 1984. First edition. Hardback in dustjacket. 378 pages, illustrated text in parallel Hebrew & English By Talmudic tradition, there are 613 mitzvoth in the Torah: 248 positive precepts, commanding us what we are to do, and 365 negative precepts - what we must not do. Yet what exactly are the 613 mitzvoth? Only later in time did scholars make their detailed listings. The clearest work we have on the subject is the famed Sefer beMitzvoth (the Book of Precepts) by Rambam (Maimonides). And this gave rise, in a way, to the Sefer baHinnuch. In 13th-century Spain, a certain scholar, un-identified till recently, decided to arrange the 613 mitzvoth, as Rambam wrote of them, in a novel way. For each sidrah (weekly portion of the Written Torah read Sabbath morning in the prayer service) he would write about the mitzvoth which the Torah commands in that particular portion.
