Mitzvah; Mitzvot: (lit. “commandment”); one of the Torah’s 613 Divine commandments; a good deed or religious precept; according to Chassidut, the word mitzvah stems from the root tzavta, attachment, the mitzvah creating a bond between G-d who commands and man who performs.
A human king sits indoors, and his servants guard him from outside. We sleep peacefully in our beds, and G‑d guards us from outside.
