The discovery of the Hammurabi Code is one of the greatest achievements of archaeology, and is of paramount interest, not only to the student of the Bible, but also to all those interested in ancient history. This document carries us back to gray antiquity; to what was once regarded as prehistoric times; to a period long antedating the promulgation of the laws of Moses; no matter whether we accept the traditional or the so-called critical view. - Summary adapted from the First Chapter (2 hr 24 min)
