 Leibowitz cannot make sense of the divinity of the mitzvoth by claiming that God is their source in any straightforward sense. Having reduced all meaningful discourse about God and faith to halakhic practice, one might thus look to the meaning of the practice for some such mark of divinity. As we have noted earlier, talk of “meaning” for Leibowitz is bound up with that of value and purpose, so it is to these that we must look for the meaning of the divinity of the mitzvoth, and Leibowitz has much to say about the purpose of the mitzvoth, particularly as they relate (or not) to human values, based on a basic Talmudic distinction between two forms of religious worship – worship that is “lishmah,” or “for its own sake,” and worship that is “Not-lishmah,” or “not for its own sake.”
