Sefer HaHinukh — Le Livre de l'Éducation

The Sefer HaHinukh is a systematic work that enumerates and explains the 613 commandments (mitsvot) of the Torah in the order of their appearance in the Pentateuch. For each commandment, the author provides the biblical source, the philosophical and moral reasons (ta'amei hamitsvot), a summary of the principal laws according to Maimonides, and the conditions of application. Intended to instruct a young man in the way of the commandments, it combines halakhic rigor and accessible ethical reflection.
