Hammurabi's code is often seen as a collection of laws, but it wasn't. It was a jurisdiction-collection, a collection of verdicts, judgements that Hammurabi had passed in cases brought before him. The intended function of these collected verdicts was to create a guideline for judges everywhere in the land when confronted with similar cases.
