Harper and RobertF. Harper Decipher the Code of Ham­murabi, King of Babylon, 22soB.C.A code of laws of Harnmurabi king ofBabylon in 2250 B. c., has been translatedby Professor William R. Harper and Pro­fessor Robert F. Harper. The laws willbe published by the University Press aboutthe first week in December. A preprinthas been issued in the American J oumalof Semetic Languages and Literature.Hammurabi was a contemporary ofAbraham and was mentioned as Amraphalin Genesis xiv. The· Code of Hammurabiwas found in the year 1901-2 by a Frenchresearch party and is considered to be themost important inscription ever discovered.Hammurabi was among the first to compilewritten laws, and is said to have been agreat statesman.The translation of Professors \Villiam R.Harper and Robert F. Harper has beenmade from photographs of the originaltablets which are all imbedded in a singlemonument of �t���: -The book will COD�(I) a map; (2) a short historical preface;(3) the text"; (4) the translation; ,(5) aphotograph of the monument on which thecode is written; and lastly a number ofindices, glossaries, signs, which will behelpful to the reader. With the exceptionof a few attempted restorations, the textis as it was written. There are 287 lawsin the code and they cover the rights ofproperty, marriage, divorce, injuries to lifeor person, rents, wages, slavery, and brib­ery.Evidently King Hammurabi had troublewith his building commissioners for hesays:.. I f a builder builds a house for a manand does not make its construction firm,and the house which he has built collapsesand causes the death of the owner of thehouse, that builder shall be put to death."And again: .. I f a boatman builds aboat for a man and he does not make its'construction seaworthy and that boa, meetswith a disaster the same year it Nas putinto commission, the boatman shall repairthat boat, and he shall strengthen it at hisown expense, and he shall give that boatwhen strengthened to the owner of .theboat."The code also had a good deal to sayconcerning the grounds for divorce. .. Ifa woman," says the code, .. hates her hus­band and says • thou shalt not have me,'they shall inquire into her antecedents forher defects; and if she has been a carefulwife and is without reproach and her hus­band has been going about and greatly be­littling her, the woman has no blame. Shewill receive her presents and shall go toher father's house. I f she has not been acareful wife, has gadded about, has neg­lected her house and belittled her husband,they shall throw that woman into thewater."This code of Hammurabi was the basisof Bahylonian and Assyrian law until thefall of both empires, The modem lawstudent, if he wishes to study the historyof law, hegins with the laws of Ham­murabi, Among scholars, and students ofthe Old Testament, there is a consensusof opinion that the Hammurabi codeformed the partial basis of the :\IosaicCOIle.
