The Law of Moses

The Law of Moses is important for studies of Religion, history and law. The Sacred Law Code was Divinely Revealed in about the year 1310 BC and was written before Moses' death in about 1200 BC. The Law Code which has been preserved today in The Books of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy held very high regard by the ancient Israelites, The Holy Law Code was seen as given by GOD Himself. Today, many Christians, Catholics, Jews and Muslims hold The Law Code with high regard, although it is disputed how much of the original Law Code still remains the same. Some Christians believe The Law of GOD has been perfectly preserved, others disagree. Whatever the case, much of The Law Code is thought to be an accurate reflection of Israelite religion, morality and culture.

Historically The Law Code shaped not only ancient Israelite way of life but also modern Jewish life, Israeli law, American law, Canadian law, Catholic law as well as many different countries law codes. The reason for this is that the majority of the worlds population at least recognize The Law Code as Sacred to some degree. The Law Code upholds a moral standard that billions of people still uphold today. The Law Code condemns murder, false witness, zoosexuality, homosexuality, fornication (pre-martial sex), stealing, worship of idols and much more. A common quote ``An eye for an eye`` comes from Exodus chapter twenty one, Verse twenty four. This is still believed today-- the punishment should meet the degree of the crime. In the first century AD when Jesus Christ taught He explained that Christians were not to take revenge but trust GOD to do justice.

Opinion 
Gandi, a popular political man said ``An eye for an eye, makes the whole world blind`` it is possible he failed to understand The Passage.

Although many know The Law of GOD (which is also called The Law of Moses) by The Ten Commandments, there are in reality over two hundred Laws in The Holy Law Code.

What The Law of Moses contains:

List of immoralities

List of unclean foods

What makes a person unclean

Sacrifices
