IN THE BIBLE

BY

DAVID WERNER AMRAM, M.A., LL.B.

Member of the Philadelphia Bar

"If by any means we can determine the early forms
of jural conceptions, they will be invaluable to us.
These rudimentary ideas are to the jurist what the
primary crusts of the earth are to the geologist. They
contain, potentially, all the forms in which law has
subsequently exhibited itself."
