The 282 laws are one of the earliest and more complete written legal codes from ancient times. The codes have served as a model for establishing justice in other cultures and are believed to have influenced laws established by Hebrew scribes, including those in the Book of Exodus. The codes were originally carved into a massive monolith of black diorite, eight feet high. Lost for centuries after the fall of Babylon in 1595 BCE, the pillar was rediscovered in ruins of the Elamite city of Susa in 1901.

Explain how the Christian Church splits even more after Martin Luther and King Henry VIII had already split before. List AT LEAS
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer and Explanation:

As you already know, King Henry VII caused a division in the Christian religion when he created the Church of England, because he did not have his second marriage supported by the Catholic Church. Similarly, Martin Luther created another division in the Catholic Church when he was released and set up his own church after the Protestant reform.

From then on, divisions took place more and more prominently, mainly within Protestantism, where it is possible to see a variety of different churches.

After the division caused by Martin Luther, the Baptist church was created, which had a Protestant base and did not baptize children and from then on, even more churches were created, each with its own particularity.

These divisions were created by the different views that people have on how to worship and serve God. These different views have led to the creation of groups with individuals who think alike. These individuals always have the desire to separate themselves from their church, to create another where there are not the same customs and the same judgments, but where they can serve God as they see fit.
