Halakhah su Cantico dei cantici 6:8

שִׁשִּׁ֥ים הֵ֙מָּה֙ מְּלָכ֔וֹת וּשְׁמֹנִ֖ים פִּֽילַגְשִׁ֑ים וַעֲלָמ֖וֹת אֵ֥ין מִסְפָּֽר׃

Ci sono regine a tre livelli e concubine a quattro punteggi e fanciulle senza numero.

Sefer HaMitzvot

Behold it has been made clear to you that from these sixty definite commandments, there are forty-six commandments that women are also obligated, and fourteen that women are not obligated. And the mnemonic for these definite commandments will be, "Sixty are the queens" (Song of Songs 6:8). And the mnemonic for the lessening of fourteen for the women will be, "the might (yad, the letters of which have a numerical value of fourteen) is gone" (Deuteronomy 32:36). Or the mnemonic of the forty-six commandments of the women will be "As for you also, because of the blood (badam, the letters of which have a numerical value of forty-six) of your covenant, I have sent forth your prisoners" (Zechariah 9:11) - meaning, the obligation upon them is the number, badam; and that is a covenant that is definitely obligatory for women. And that is what I wanted to hint regarding the number of the positive commandments.
