Instructions:
Compare the early law codes of Hammurabi and the Biblical Covenant. They can be found in Sayre pp. 49-51 and 58-59 and I have attached them as word documents. The paper must be between 550-650 original words in length and in MLA format.
Sources:
Use academic sources only. Use JSTOR to find scholarly articles. Primary sources can be harder to find, and you may need to use an online version. This is fine but be careful that it is from a reliable source.
Referencing:
Use MLA Style (parenthetical) referencing
Talking Points:
What kinds of general themes do you find in the codes? Based on the codes, what can you say about organization and outlook of the societies?
