The 613 Commandments

Sure. I would suggest the following website that follows the
classification by Maimonides in the 12th century. He lists 613 laws
along with their references in the Torah.

You
can tell which commands are civil, ceremonial, moral, and some that fit
under more than one heading and some don't belong to either category.
If you need some more clarity about which commands belong to what
category, we can discuss further. As for which commands are binding on
us today - they are the commands that we can follow. I'm perfectly
willing to discuss this further if more questions are being asked. I
would further say that one must remember that Jesus perfectly fulfilled
the laws and we haven't and we can't. That's not saying that the the Law
is wrong - we are. Please re-read Galatians 3:15-22 because Paul
explains what the use of the law is and how it fits in our lives today.
