Law Above the Law: In Search of a Foundation of Justice

This article explores the concept of "law above law," seeking a transcendent foundation of justice. It examines law from a biblical perspective, presenting it as a guide, a mirror of sinfulness, and a monolithic whole. It criticizes legal relativism and positivism, which lead to arbitrariness, confronting them with the concepts of natural law and revelation. It emphasizes the importance of universal moral values that transcend positive law, drawing on the examples of the Nuremberg Trials and the role of the Ten Commandments as a clear foundation. The aim is to identify the absolute source of justice essential for the stability of the legal order.
