Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Law of Hammurabi and Moses: A Sketch This book consists of two parts: first, a translation of a brochure by Professor Hubert Grimme, to which I append a version from the Babylonian of such of the laws of Hammurabi´s Code as he discusses in detail; and, secondly, of a series of chapters by myself. Hammurabi´s stela is, and must remain, a conspicuous landmark in the historical and legal study of the Old Testament, but, so far as I am aware, no writer except Professor Grimme has appeared to discuss this great monument of the Abrahamic age in a manner at all satisfactory to students who believe the Old Testament to be authentic and historically true. For such persons, and, indeed, for all earnest-minded inquirers, this sketch of his appears to me likely to be very helpful, a contribution of value to the understanding both of Hammurabi´s and the Mosaic Codes, and also of the relationship, or otherwise, between them. Hence this translation of Professor Grimme´s sketch. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
