The Law
All 613 commandments of the Law of Moses, in their traditional order — the 248 positive and the 365 negative — every one with its Scripture, quoted from the King James Bible.
The Law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ (John 1:17). This is the whole Law as Israel received it and as the rabbis numbered it — the enumeration follows the traditional count of Maimonides’ Sefer Hamitzvot: the positive commandments first (“Thou shalt…”), then the negative (“Thou shalt not…”). Read it to know what the Law actually commands — its breadth, its holiness, and its weight: “For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all” (James 2:10). Every text is the King James Bible, verified word for word.
