Question
where can I find a list of all the mitzvahs correlating with the exact pasuk found in the Torah?
-are females supposed to speak the correlating pasuks too while performing each mitzvah?
Answer
Shalom,
Thanks for the questions.
1. The “Book of Education” (Sefer HaChinuch) lists all the 613 commands, the verses they are learnt from and an explanation of each one. It is printed in Hebrew, but a good English translation is available.
2. One does not need to say the verses that is the source for a Mitzvah when performing the commandment. Mostly we do not do so. If one so desires it is permitted. There is no difference between men and women in this issue.
Blessings.
