BIBLICAL BEGINNINGS OF CRIMINAL PROTECTION OF CULTURAL VALUES (based on the Mosaic Pentateuch)
( Pp. 39-45)

The author advances and substantiates the hypothesis that modern criminal legislation on the protection of cultural values from crimes goes back to the ancient period of the Bible story of law and state, described by Moses in the Pentateuch. To achieve this goal the author applies historical and legal, comparative legal research methods, uses numerous references to the texts of the Old Testament, their interpretation given by the Russian and foreign Biblical scholars, and other sources. The article draws historical parallels between the relevant rules of the Mosaic criminal law and criminal prohibitions, which are contained in Old Russian, pre-revolutionary, Soviet and modern Russian legislation. Hebrew and Old Russian criminal law shows that the criminal-law protection of cultural values has a religious nature. The article also illustrates evolution and development of biblical and legal ideas about the protective function of criminal law in the area defense of cultural values from crimes.
