Detailed explanation-1: -Contextual material for the exhibition The 613 by Archie Rand (11 September-13 October 2018). The 613 refers to the 613 Jewish commandments (mitzvot in Hebrew) extracted from the Old Testament.
Detailed explanation-2: -Familiarity with the Torah varies, however, and not every Jew knows its 613th commandment: that all Jews should, at some time in their lives, take part in writing a new Torah. ‘’It’s a self-perpetuating commandment that keeps the Torah alive, ‘’ said Lynn G. Weisman, a congregant of Kol Ami.
Detailed explanation-3: -The word mitzvah means commandment. This is a reference to the commandments in the Torah. Many people think of the Ten Commandments when they hear the word commandment, but there are more than 600 mitzvot (plural for of mitzvah) in the Torah.
