reading: IF slave or female slave receive

the slave are cut or and the stolen property

the man either cuts offs his wife's ear or he

justly heralded Is the most important con-
tribution in the history Of the ancient Orient
since the discovery Of the Hammurabi code.
SQTHE general contrast between the two Is
1! the point Of view from which, the ad-
ministration Of justice is regarded. Ham
murabi emphasizes that his aim in the coll
lection Of the laws was to bring about just
judicial procedure throughout the wide ter
ritory controlled by him, to remove, the
wicked and the evil so that the strong might
not oppren the weak In contrast to this
new spirit, the new Assyrian code Is ON the
whole harsh and severe. 1t was primarily
q penal code, covering, in the parts % far
discovered, theft, defraudations, trespass on
property, bewitchment and regulations re-
gardiny the conduct of women.
''The punishments set forth in this code
are in keeping with its harsh aspects, and
