A List of the 613 Mitzvot (Commandments)
Below is a list of the 613 mitzvot (commandments). It is based primarily on the list compiled by Rambam in the Mishneh Torah. For each mitzvah, www.jewfaq.org has provided a citation to the biblical passage or passages from which it is derived, based primarily on Rambam. Rambam's list is probably the most widely accepted list, but it is not the only one.
For commandments that can be observed today, www.jewfaq.org has also provided citations to the Chafetz Chayim's Concise Book of Mitzvot (CCA refers to affirmative commandments; CCN refers to negative commandments; CCI refers to commandments that only apply in Israel). Commandments that cannot be observed today primarily relate to the Temple, its sacrifices and services (because the Temple does not exist) and criminal procedures (because the theocratic state of Israel does not exist).
