The first laws were often attributed to divine powers because early societies sought legitimacy and authority beyond human governance. By linking laws to the will of gods or divine beings, leaders could ensure compliance and instill a sense of moral obligation among the populace. This connection also provided a framework for understanding justice and order, reinforcing social cohesion and stability through a shared belief in a higher power guiding human affairs.
