To questions of sources of norms of administrative coercion in the legislation of Moses (on the basis of the analysis of books Genesis and Exodus of the old Testament)

This article analyzes the provisions of the books Exodus and Genesis of the old Testament of the mosaic Pentateuch, which essentially determine not only the religious, but also the legal order of governance of the ancient Israeli people. It is in these books that the first provisions of legal norms and laws on earth are established, which, having received the character that determines the vector for further development and integration, subsequently become the basis for many legal systems in the world. A distinctive feature of those normative-legal prescriptions is their deep religiosity to fanaticism, which, however, is more focused on statehood as a form of government, where the leading role is assigned to the Lord, in the future, such a position of the state system will only be modified, supplemented and developed, improving depending on the time and territory of peoples, but the concept itself will not change in principle. The norms established in the books Exodus and Genesis, including administrative law, harmoniously combine a conglomerate of religious, social, administrative, universal, civil, criminal and other norms, which by their unification touched all spheres of human life and activity, and remain relevant to the present time.
