The Code of Hammurabi is one of the most important monuments in the history of the human race.  Containing as it does the laws which were enacted by a king of Babylonia in the third millennium B.C., whose rule extended over the whole of Mesopotamia from the mouths of the rivers Tigris and Euphrates to the Mediterranean coast, we must regard it with interest. 

An excellent gift for the law and seminary student, giving us a glimpse backward at the foundation of spiritual and secular laws.

An excellent reference tool for the the lawyer and minister as well!
