Hi Jairhaas,

I know it says 'code' in the German text, but would 'law' not be a better translation for most of these? If I look at "Draconian code" on the internet, most of the times the more widely used wording is "Draconian laws", for example.

Let me know what you think!
Cheers,
Lein

Lein, thank you for your suggestion. "Code" = a collection of laws, and the two words are therefore not interchangeable. Furthermore, in the world of Bible-scholarship (and this text certainly seems to have been written by a professional scholar) the word "code" is used exceedingly often, which, of course, is not the case on the internet, where mostly laymen write.I therefore prefer to stick as closely as possible to the original text, especially since there is no justifiable reason to stray from it.

OK, thanks for the explanation! I'll wait for some comments / votes but I reckon I can accept this one soon.

I agree with jairhaas were he prefers *code* to *law*.
If the source text has been written by a scholar, then most certainly not by one who is a native speaker of German :-).
Suggested corrections: 1) one cannot carry out an execution by 'being burned' alive, it is the object of the phrase who is being burned; therefore -> by burning alive
2) pfählen means to impale; hence: by impaling or by impalement

Jairhaas, I haven't heard back from you so I have incorporated Guido's suggestions. Let me know if you don't agree.
Thanks, Guido!
