Sažetak
In order to understand gender and family relations in ancient Hebrew and Amorite societies I used the comparative method. The Book of Leviticus and the Code of Hammurabi are the primary sources I have used for the comparison. By comparing different forms of punishment for the same crimes, the inequalities in gender relations within those societies can be seen. Both sources contain patriarchal elements, but these are not of the same intensity. Since the Book of Leviticus and the Code of Hammurabi did not originate at the same period, the course in which these societies developed in terms of the position and equality of men and women can be presented, and that was the development of patriarchy.
