		Grotius is often considered one of the first to separate natural law from divine law, but the distinction is not always easy to perceive.
		Grotius claimed that just as the desire for community necessitates certain laws and principles to hold society together for mutual benefit, so the community of nations is held together by certain natural principles.

	Hugo Grotius
		Hugo de Groot of Holland, better known by his Latin name Hugo Grotius, is an almost legendary figure today in several respects.
		But Grotius desired to be complete and comprehensive, esteeming lack of historical documentation (from which alone the rules of the law of nations can be proved) to be the chief fault of previous writers.
		In assessing Grotius' works taken as a whole, then, it can be concluded that this premier theorist in modern international law was most certainly not an eclectic, nor was he a naturalist in the modern sense of the word.

	Hegel's History of Philosophy (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Hugo Grotius was studying the laws of nations at the same time as Locke; and in him the very same methods may be found as those already mentioned, inasmuch as he also falls into a quite empirical system of associating nations with one another, combining with that an empirical mode of reasoning.
		Hugo van Groot, born 1583 at Delft, was a lawyer, fiscal general, and council pensionary; in 1619, however, he was implicated in the Barneveldt trial, and was compelled to fly the country.
		In it Grotius presented a comparative historical account, the material of which was partly derived from the Old Testament, of the manner in which nations in the various relationships of war and peace have acted towards one another, and what usages they held to be binding.

		With his main work De lure Belli ac Pacis, Hugo Grotius (1583-1645) is considered the founder of a systematic modern doctrine of international law.
		In the present classical-historical and legal-historical text Grotius' work is examined concerning its relation to the classical and early Christian period.
