Antik Mısır, Antik Yunan ve Yahudilikte Köken, Yasa ve Düzen: Karşılaştırmalı Bir İnceleme
Origin, Law and Order in Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greek, and Judaism: A Comparative Examination

Summary/Abstract: Since the first period of society, order, origin, and law have been constantly discussed in different contexts. That is because all societies have established their social order by adhering to the explanation models they have developed regarding their origins. In addition, societies base their laws on their social order, which are the basis of all religious beliefs, culture, traditions, and customs. This study investigates the thought of ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, and Judaism in the context of social origin, law, and order. The reason for drawing the research boundary with these worlds of thought is that while ancient Egyptian and ancient Greek thought presented mythological narratives, Judaism presented a structure with a belief in monotheism. In the study, in ancient Egyptian and ancient Greek thought systems, the origin is explained with mythological narrative, the law is explained with the concepts of ma’at and themis, and order is explained with these concepts forming the basic principle of management. In addition, it has been argued that the mythological narrative and its related concepts have been replaced by the holy book, covenant, and prophet in Judaic thought.
