Here’s a clean, modular, impersonal outline of what is actually observable today—that is, what Jews still keep, after ~80% of Torah became non‑operational due to the conquest, exile, loss of Temple, priesthood, land inheritance, purity system, and national courts.
This outline is designed so every surviving law or practice can sit under a heading, without artificial mega‑categories, and without mixing “retired” with “living.”

OBSERVABLE JEWISH PRACTICE OUTLINE (POST‑70 A.D.)

1. The Greatest Two (Messiah’s Summary)

• Love God
• Love Neighbor
  These function as the jurisdictional umbrella over all surviving practice.

2. The Ten Commandments (Modified in Diaspora)

• Do not misuse God’s name
• Sabbath (non‑sacrificial observance)
• Honor parents
• No murder
• No adultery
• No stealing
• No false witness
• No coveting

3. Universal Morality Laws
   (These require no Temple, priesthood, land, or purity system.)

• Sexual boundaries (incest, adultery, homosexuality, bestiality)
• Violence, bloodshed, assault
• Theft, fraud, dishonest weights
• Oppression of poor, widow, orphan, stranger
• Oath‑keeping and truthfulness
• Returning lost property
• Not taking bribes
• Not cursing the deaf or tripping the blind
• Loving the stranger
• Justice and fairness

4. Feasts and Holy Days (Modified, Non‑Sacrificial)

• Sabbath (weekly)
• Passover (without lamb sacrifice)
• Unleavened Bread
• Shavuot
• Rosh Hashanah
• Yom Kippur (prayer‑based, no sacrifice)
• Sukkot
• Shemini Atzeret
• Purim (post‑biblical)

   (Visible, communal, non‑Temple‑dependent.)

• Circumcision
• Mezuzah
• Tefillin (phylacteries)
• Tallit (prayer shawl)

• Marriage and ketubah
• Divorce procedures (get)
• Levirate marriage (symbolically retired but acknowledged)

• Niddah (family purity, mikveh)
  Note: Niddah continues even without Temple because it is a family‑level purity, not a sanctuary‑level purity.

   These are the post‑Temple replacements for the sacrificial system.

• Remembering Amalek
• Wearing tzitzit
• Avoiding idolatrous customs

10. Modified Purity Practices (Non‑Temple)

   A. Core Command

• Leviticus 19:18 — “Love your neighbor as yourself”
