"All are equal under the Law." —Roman Maxim of Commercial Law
Moral and Natural Law of God.
EXODUS 21:23-25— "And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe."
LEVITICUS 24:17-21— "And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death. And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast. And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him; Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again. And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth a man, he shall be put to death."
DEUTERONOMY 1:17— "Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; but ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring it unto me, and I will hear it."
DEUTERONOMY 19:21— "And thine eye shall not pity; but life shall go for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot."
MATTHEW 22:36-40— "Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."
LUKE 10:17— "And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name."
COLOSSIANS 3:25— "But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect to persons."
Legal maxim: No one is above the law. Commerce, by the Law of Nations, ought to be common, and not to be converted into a monopoly and the private gain of a few.
