  Book of the Law of the Lord
Portions of the manuscript Book of the Law of the Lord are in the rare collections of Brigham Young University, Southern Methodist University, and Yale University.
When the Lord thy God in multiplying blesseth thee, and giveth thee a child in thine own image; thou shalt bring him before the Lord thy God, in his house, or in the assembly of the Elders; and they shall lay their hands upon him, and bless him.
The power of the Lord God, he giveth to him, to rule the nations, and to execute judgments among the children of men: he shall declare the Laws and Commandments; exercise his dominion; and cast a shield round about the children of his people; that his dominion be not taken from him forever.

 Law Book   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
The ''Book of the Law of the Lord'' was "translated from metallic plates" with the use of Urim and Thummim by James Strang in the late 1840s, and first published in 1851.
It is written clearly and is internally coherent given the premise that the book is what it says it is. Regardless of its origin, it is comprehensive enough to be such a book as King Josiah found in his 18th year, while cleaning the treasury room of the temple.
For example, a passage in the 1851 edition regarding the king's duties: "He shall not multiply to himself wives; lest he forget the Law, and avenge not his people: and lest his heart turn from them to strange women" is contradicted by a long essay on the virtues of polygamy in the 1856 edition.

Narrative in Biblical Law: For some, the biblical mixture of legal, ritual, and moral rules, together with the intermingling of law and narrative in the Pentateuch, is a matter to be ignored, or even explained away as representing a ‘primitive’ stage of legal development.
Whereas divine law is presented in Exodus-Numbers as the words of God to Moses, which he is commanded to transmit to the children of Israel, Deuteronomy recounts Moses’performance of that task: it is Moses telling the children of Israel what God has told him.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Natural Law
As the Sovereign Lord of all things, He could withdraw from Isaac his right to life, and from the Egyptians their right of ownership, with the result that neither would the killing of Isaac be an unjust destruction of life, nor the appropriation of the Egyptians' goods the unjust taking of another's property.
Positive law may not ordain anything contrary to the natural law, from which it draws its authority; but it may–and this is one of its functions–determine with more precision the bearing of the natural law, and for good reasons, supplement its conclusions.
The natural law is the foundation of all human law inasmuch as it ordains that man shall live in society, and society for its constitution requires the existence of an authority, which shall possess the moral power necessary to control the members and direct them to the common good.

 1856 Strang's Book of the Law   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Of this book thirty-seven pages are made up of the certificates and affidavits of nearly one hundred persons, to prove that Joseph and his associates were vagrants, money-diggers, and superstitious, ignorant and vicious persons, and that they got up the Book of Mormon as a speculation.
The testimony of the witnesses ought to be read and judged, with a view to this exceeding improbability; and the genuineness of their certificates ought to be looked after with the suspicion engendered by the examination of the former set, accumulated by the same author.

On the contrary, to secure the guilty from being brought to punishment in some more healthy state of the publick conscience, they were indicted, arraigned, and acquitted, by a jury, and thus a legal bar interposed to any future prosecution for the same offence.
Thus was this Prophet murdered, (in defiance of law, to be sure,) by the highest authority in the State; and by every guaranty which the law can give, were his murderers perpetually secured against punishment.
