It is the most humanitarian of all known bodies of laws before recent times. The laws about slavery, which envisage the liberation of Hebrew slaves after seven years, are a good example. But there are also laws protecting the poor: interest (always high in the ancient East) was prohibited, and again there was a moratorium after a term of years... Even strangers, who normally had very little protection in antiquity, except when they were citizens of a strong neighbouring state which might step in and protect them by force of arms, are exceptionally well cared for by Mosaic law.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6730</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gloriously false.

And men see his good works, and admire them in spite of themselves, and see that they are God-like, and that God's grace is no dream, but that the Holy Spirit is still among men, and that all nobleness and manliness is His gift, His stamp, His picture: and so they get a glimpse of God again in His saints and heroes, and glorify their Father who is in heaven.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Someday perhaps the inner light will shine forth from us, and then we'll need no other light. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18446]]></link><description><![CDATA[Someday perhaps the inner light will shine forth from us, and then we'll need no other light.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18446</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It takes two men to make one brother. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66119]]></link><description><![CDATA[It takes two men to make one brother.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66119</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With people of limited ability modesty is merely honesty.
