Hammurabi's Code of Laws dictated(?) to him by Shamash or Marduk, (1792BC) came after a series of laws from other monarchs of ancient near east.
Consider there is the Code of Ur-Nammu, king of Ur (2050BC), the Laws of Eshnunna (1930BC) and the codex of Lipit-Ishtar of Isin (1870BC), finally Hammurabi's.
A similar distance in time found between us and the Revolutionary War.

Is Hammurabi's law better then Canada's law?
canadian law is better than hammurabi's law because hammurabi's law is way more harsher than canadian laws today. of course, if our law was as harsh as hammurabi's today, there would be less crimes. in canadian law, the people who decide if you are going to jail/if you are guilty, have to ask questions to themselves like 'did the accused person of the crime do his actions on purpose','how old is this person...' and it goes on and on. when in hammurabi's law no questions asked you would be killed right away. in my opinion i would rather have the canadian law more than hammurabi's.

What is the evidence that Paul dictated many of his letters to a secretary?
The only evidence that could exist for Paul having dictated letters to a secretary would be an original manuscript, so that we could examine the handwriting. Since no such manuscript exists, we can not know whether he wrote or dictated his letters. In any case, this would not matter. If the supposed secretary wrote the letters in the same words as used by Paul, then those letters are the work of Paul. Nor would the existence of a secretary suddenly validate the pseudo-Pauline letters. The reasons that scholars have recognised them as having been written much later than Paul and very much by different authors, has nothing to do with handwriting variations (which are unknown). The evidence for pseudo-Pauline epistles could not be explained away as a secretary taking minor liberties with the words Paul dictated.
