re: #693 stevemcg

So you’re seriously going to tell me that before Moses, other civilizations, includeing ones that had no contact with the Israelites, had no clue about right and wrong? That before the Ten Commandments, there was no such thing as criminal law?

What does criminal law have to do with any of this? You’re mixing law and morals again.

To answer your question: sure other civilizations had laws and had an idea of what’s wrong and what’s right, but it was dictated by the strongest individual or pure anarchy. Judaism on the other hand made what you call “morals” into universal set of laws, dictated by God, therefore making everyone equal before God’s judgement, and requiring all to follow universal set of rules.
