"Rabbi
Simlai expounded: 613 commandments were related to Moses: 365 negative
commandments, corresponding to the days of the solar year, and 248
positive commandments, corresponding to the number of parts of the human
body. Rav Hamnuna said: Which verse teaches this? 'Moses commanded us
the Torah as a heritage' (Deuteronomy 33:4). The numerical value of the
word Torah is 611. To this we must add the first two of the Ten
Commandments, 'I am YHVH your God' and 'You shall have no other gods',
which we heard directly from the Almighty, and are thus distinct from
the 611 commandments that we heard from Moses. All told, then, there
are 613 mitzvot in the Torah."
-- Talmud Bavli, Makot 23b
613 = 365 + 248 is probably the most important equation in Torah mathematics.
Every one of the 613 mitzvot is a fractal subspace of Torah, that is, it is resonantly self-similar to the overall 304,805-letters in the complete Torah codespace.
