What is the difference between the 10 commandments and the laws of others such as the Greeks and Romans?

According to the Bible, he 10 commandments were given to Moses by GOD on Mount Sinai. No other code of laws originated by GOD. The laws of other cultures have various origins. Many cultures have multiple gods as in Greek or Roman or Norse cultures. Their gods contributed to their laws. The earliest code of laws that I could find are the "Code of Hammurabi" a new king in the Mesopotamian city of Babylon. It dates back to 1700 BC. He issued a law code that would be the same for all the people in the Babylonian Empire. He decreed he was chosen by the gods to deliver the code to his people, "to bring about the rule of righteousness in the land". A stele was found in 1901with the laws inscribed. It currently is in the LOUVRE, in Paris.

Is natural law and moral law same?

Natural law theory is based on the 'right or natural thing to do'. This theory was phased into systems of justice after WWII when the many injustices were witnessed against the Jewish community. Positivism was the prominent theory before this stating that there is no law (not even the moral judgment or power of a higher power) more authoritative than that of law made by man. This had moral complications as witnessed in WWII. These two theories are polar opposites! It can be seen that natural law and moral judgement or thinking is similar... but not the same. Another answer On a more fundamental level natural laws are immutable, such as the laws of physics. Moral laws are learned behaviour appropriate to the society in which you live..
