Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Code of Hammurabi Hammurabi, who is probably to be identified with the Amraphel of Gen. Xiv. 1, was the sixth king of the first known dynasty of Babylon, and he reigned for forty-three years - about 2130 - 2088 b.c., as far as can at present be determined. He was a successful ruler and an able administrator. His Code of Laws is inscribed on a block of black diorite which was found on the acropolis of Susa by an expedition sent out by the French Government under M. De Morgan in 1901. At the top of the front side of the stele is a bas relief representing Hammurabi receiving the code from Shamash, the Sun-god. About one-eighth of the code (five columns) has been erased 3 the remaining forty-four columns contain two hundred and forty-eight separate provisions. These provisions relate almost exclusively to civil and criminal law. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

It may even be found eventually that the inﬂuence of the Babylonian Code extended beyond the Semitic boundary, and that it has modified the legal ideas of distant peoples; but as yet it is too early to verify any such suggestion. In any case, however, the age, the extent, and the remarkable state of preservation of this venerable monument of antiquity combine to entitle it to the respect and consideration of every thinking being.

Book excerpt: The Code of Hammurabi is a well-preserved Babylonian law code of ancient Mesopotamia, dating back to about 1754 BC. It is one of the oldest deciphered writings of significant length in the world. The sixth Babylonian king, Hammurabi, enacted the code, and partial copies exist on a man-sized stone stele and various clay tablets. The Code consists of 282 laws, with scaled punishments, adjusting "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" (lex talionis) as graded depending on social status, of slave versus free man. Nearly one-half of the Code deals with matters of contract, establishing, for example, the wages to be paid to an ox driver or a surgeon. Other provisions set the terms of a transaction, establishing the liability of a builder for a house that collapses, for example, or property that is damaged while left in the care of another. A third of the code addresses issues concerning household and family relationships such as inheritance, divorce, paternity, and sexual behavior. Only one provision appears to impose obligations on an official; this provision establishes that a judge who reaches an incorrect decision is to be fined and removed from the bench permanently. A few provisions address issues related to military service. Hammurabi ruled for nearly 42 years, c. 1792 to 1750 BC according to the Middle chronology. In the preface to the law, he states, "Anu and Bel called by name me, Hammurabi, the exalted prince, who feared Marduk, the patron god of Babylon (The Human Record, Andrea & Overfield 2005), to bring about the rule in the land." On the stone slab there are 44 columns and 28 paragraphs that contained 282 laws. The laws follow along the rules of 'an eye for an eye'.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Hammurabi and Moses: A Sketch I have to thank Professor Grimme for kindly per mitting his brocfiure to appear in its present form. For my translation he has revised his original throughout, added the whole of the passage on the ancient Arabian inscriptions (a subject in which he is known to be specially interested), and a new Foreword. He is in no way responsible for any additions of my own, which are always definitely marked off from his work by, at least, square brackets usually followed by the contracted word trans. For the Table of Contents here given, the division into chapters, the chapter-headings and Index, I am also responsible. The quotations from the Bible are given, usually, from the Revised Version.

His fame and reputation are due to the collection of laws written under his patronage. This book offers a new interpretation of the Laws of Hammurabi. Ancient scribes would demonstrate their legal flair by composing statutes on a set of traditional cases, articulating what they deemed just and fair. The scribe of the Laws of Hammurabi advanced beyond earlier scribesin articulating legal thinking. The tradition that inspired the Laws of Hammurabi continued outside of Mesopotamia. It influenced biblical law and may have shaped Greek and Roman law.
