We think of law as rules whose words are binding, used by the
courts in the adjudication of disputes. Bernard S. Jackson explains
that early biblical law was significantly different, and that many
of the laws in the Covenant Code in Exodus should be viewed as
"wisdom-laws." By this term, he means "self-executing" rules, the
provisions of which permit their application without recourse to
the law-courts or similar institutions. They thus conform to two
tenets of the "wisdom tradition": that judicial dispute should be
avoided, and that the law is a type of teaching, or "wisdom."
