K, the bible wasn' "abridged" by King James. He commissioned 30 translators to diligently translate it into English by using the "textus receptus" manuscripts. There was no abridging at all. It was a complete translation.
Sorry, wrong use of word. I don't know where I got abridgement from.

And also, the law, as given to Moses was not the first human laws either. In fact, the first human law was given to Adam in the garden. And all society since has had laws based on the principles of God's precepts given to man.
Yes, we now know that Adam was given the first law to "not partake of the tree..." because of the Bible. I missused my statement, but merely meant that Moses was responsible for them being written down and communicated to people.
