The Law Of Hammurabi And Moses

""The Law of Hammurabi and Moses: A Sketch"" is a historical book written by Hubert Grimme in 1907. The book provides an overview and comparison of the legal codes of two ancient civilizations: Babylonian and Hebrew. The author delves into the similarities and differences between the laws of Hammurabi, the Babylonian king who ruled in the 18th century BCE, and Moses, the Hebrew prophet who led the Israelites out of Egypt in the 13th century BCE. The book examines how both legal systems addressed issues such as property rights, marriage, and crime. Grimme also analyzes the cultural and religious contexts that influenced the development of these legal codes. The book is a fascinating exploration of the legal systems of two of the world's oldest civilizations and their enduring impact on modern law.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
