Etymology From deca- + -partite.

Comprising ten parts.

  • Of course, the decapartite structure of the Decalogue is not marred by this additional miṣvah; according to Rambam’s (and others’) definition of miṣvot, the Decalogue (in both its versions) already comprises well in excess of ten such subdivisional miṣvot (see second entry on Dt. 33:4).2001, Isaac S.D.
