Of the Reason for the Judicial Precepts
We must now consider the reason for the judicial precepts: under which head there are four points of inquiry:
(1) Concerning the reason for the judicial precepts relating to the rulers;
(2) Concerning the fellowship of one man with another;
(3) Concerning matters relating to foreigners;
(4) Concerning things relating to domestic matters.
Articles

- a. 3Whether the judicial precepts regarding foreigners were framed in a suitable manner?
- a. 4Whether the Old Law set forth suitable precepts about the members of the household?
