613 Commandments, The

Large View 

Translated by: Rabbi C. Chavel

A comprehensive explanation of the 613 mitzvoth!

This two-volume set is the most authoritative English translation of the Sefer HaMitzvoth of Rambam (Maimonides). In this, one of his major works, Rambam explains the basic principles used in determining which precepts were to be included in the 613 mitzvoth, then lists and comments on each of the commandments. Providing an encyclopedic survey of Rabbinic literature, this work is a brilliant presentation of the most fundamental teachings of Judaism.
