One key concept that appears to have originated from Judaism is that all people are equal under the law, even the king is bound by the law, and the law applies equally to rich and poor and to master and slave. Earlier codes, such as the code of Hammurabi, had elaborate hierarchies, where the penalty for one person doing something to another depended on the social rank of the victim and the perpetrator.
