On the next few pages Yavoh Ministries will present a more concise and detailed listing of the 613 commandments (mitzvot). It is based primarily on the list recorded and classified by RaMBaM in his classic compendium of Jewish law, the Mishneh Torah, which contains 14 primary "books" or sections. For each mitzvah, we have provided a citation to the biblical passage or passages from which it is derived, based primarily on RaMBaM.

Some Scripture references may contain a reference in parenthesis (). This indicates a conflict in reference numbering between the Hebrew and Christian copies of the Scriptures and reflects the Christian reference to the Scriptures which are used.

Even though may of the commands listed below are found in the Scriptures, many Christians believe that any ruling by the Rabbis is not binding upon them because they have been taught the "this is just for the Jews". Therefore an understanding of what Yeshua (Jesus) referred to as "Moshe's seat" should really accompany their study of the mitzvot. A good explanation of "Moshe's seat" and the authority of the Rabbis for all who would partake of the promises of the Covenant is given HERE and Berean students are urged to read it.
