Other opinions: Most Moneiy Hamitzvos, including Rambam and Chinuch, do not list Bitachon as one of the commands.

[2] The scriptural source: Some learn this Mitzvah from the verse Devarim 20:1 “Ki Seitzei…Lo Sira Meihem.” [Rabbeinu Yona ibid] Others learn it from the verse Devarim 10:20 “Ubo Sidbak. ” [Meshech Chochma on Devarim ibid]
