a Umthetho kaHammurabi wawungenawo amalungiselelo alolo hlobo; ingazange ibonwe nangetshengele ingqokelela yemithetho yezempilo efana neyomthetho kaMoses kumaYiputa amandulo, nangona ngokwentelekiso ayehambele phambili kwezamayeza. Incwadi iAncient Egypt ithi: “Oomabophe nemixube yobugqi iqukwe ngokukhululekileyo [kwiincwadi zamaYiputa zamayeza] nemiyalelo esengqiqweni ngokusetyenziswa kwayo.” Noko ke, okaThixo uMthetho wawungenayo impembelelo yeedemon kodwa wawusengqiqweni nangokwenzululwazi. Ngokomzekelo, kukumaxesha anamhla kuphela abathe oogqirha bakubona kuyimfuneko ukuhlamba emva kokuchukumisa izidumbu, nto leyo uMthetho kaMoses owayiyalela amawaka eminyaka eyadlulayo!—Numeri, isahluko 19.
