En Buen Ora

one quote had the politician saying the 10 Commandments were the first laws, from Moses, and I would like to have asked the gentleman if he had heard that Moses in those same scriptures was said to be from Egypt, i.e. already existed, and had laws, b/c that seems a pretty big part of the Moses story

At least back in the day, Christian theologians had the decency to argue that what made Moses' law distinct was that it was more gracious or something.
