    The Code of Hammurabi An eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth. That is what the Code of Hammurabi is trying to get across. After reading the Code‚ all I could think about was "What if that is what the laws were like now in the United States?" I don’t think that the people would act in the manner that they do now.

    Hammurabi ruler of Babylon 4000 years ago‚ wrote a set of 282 laws called Hammurabi’s Code. However‚ I think that Hammurabi’s Code wasn’t just because it threatened the family‚ destroyed personal property‚ and caused pressure on personal injury.
