The Mosaic code, found in the Torah, includes both casuistic and apodictic laws. Casuistic laws are conditional and typically framed as "if-then" statements, addressing specific situations and offering case-based guidance. In contrast, apodictic laws are absolute commands or prohibitions. Thus, while the Mosaic code contains casuistic elements, it also encompasses broader, non-conditional laws.
Hammurabi's Code is often considered inferior to the law given to Moses because it is primarily focused on retributive justice, emphasizing strict punishments for specific offenses without regard to broader ethical principles. In contrast, Mosaic law incorporates moral and spiritual dimensions, emphasizing love, compassion, and community welfare alongside justice. Additionally, Mosaic law is viewed as divinely inspired, providing a more universal and timeless framework for ethical conduct compared to Hammurabi's context-specific legalism.
