  Corpus Juris Civilis
The Corpus represented a true juridical revolution, that organised Roman law in a form and in an organic scheme that pretty unaltered is still in use in some countries today (apart from obvious adaptings) such as Scotland.
The work was directed by Tribonian[?], a quaestor, and distributed in three parts: Digesto (or "Pandectae"), Institutiones, and the Codex.
Also called Pandectae, the Digesto was issued in 533, and contained the works of great Roman jurists, notably Ulpian, and some other sources (i.e.

 Corpus Juris Civilis - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
The provisions of the Corpus Juris Civilis also influenced the Canon Law of the church since it was said that ecclesia vivit lege romana — the church lives under Roman law.
The work was directed by Tribonian, an official in Justinian's court, and distributed in three parts: Digesta (or "Pandectae"), Institutiones, and the Codex Constitutionum.
The Digesta or Pandectae consist of a collection of legal writings mostly dating back to the second and third centuries B.C. Fragments were taken out of various legal treatises and opinions and inserted in the Digest.

 Roman law
The Emperor Justinian arranged for the re-organisation of most of Roman law in his Codex and his Pandectae, a fifty book set which took three years to compile and was completed in 533.
Justinian's work was completed by Pandectae (or Digesto), Institutiones and Codex are part of the Corpus Juris Civilis.
This has been called the most influential law work ever written as it has been on the reading list for legal students in countries using Civil law for nearly 1500 years so far.

One of the Justinian's greatest accomplishments is his judicial revolution which organised Roman law in a form and organic scheme that is still in use today and remains more or less unaltered in some countries today (apart from obvious adaptations).
The first draft of the Corpus Juris Civilis was issued on April 7, 529 in three parts: Digesto (or Pandectae), Institutiones, and the Codex.
The Corpus was drafted by a group of commissioners headed by the quaestor Tribonian, and was written in Latin, the traditional language of the Roman Empire which was now poorly understood by most citizens of the Eastern Empire.

Obedience to the pandects of a civilized society is one mark of a good citizen.
The original pandect was the Pandectae, a massive fifty-volume digest of Roman civil law that was created under the emperor Justinian in the 6th century.
The Latin word "pandectae" is the plural of "pandectes," which means "encyclopedic work" or "book that contains everything." "Pandectes" in turn derives from the Greek "pandēktes" ("all-receiving"), from "pan-" ("all") and "dechesthai" ("to receive").

It is a reference work for physicians on diseases and their remedies in the form of a general universal dictionary of plants of medicinal properties, their names being given in Arabic, Greek and Latin.
The Pandectae is much larger than Simon's Synonyma, but generally inferior, except from the purely botanical point of view.
These genuine botanical observations redeem the Pandectae from Haller's severe judgment, 'Auctori barbari opus chaoticum' or in John Friend's words (1725): "there is scarce any understanding in it; there being hardly one line, where there is not a barbarous or unintelligible expression: so that there wants another Dictionary to explain his meaning.

 Byzantine reformation of the Roman legislation. - History Forum
The Digesta or Pandectae and the Institutiones, were compiled after the publication of this code, subsequently to which fifty decisiones and some new constitutiones also were promulgated by the emperor.
This rendered a revision of the code necessary; and accordingly a commission for that purpose was given to Tribonianus, to Dorotheus, a distinguished teacher of law at Berytus in Phoenicia, and three others.
It was also declared that no commentaries should be written on this compilation, but permission was given to make Paratitla or references to parallel passages with a short statement of their contents.

The problem with this new set of laws was that it largely ignored the divine law and relied primarily upon the Church’s lawless view of right and wrong.
This second Codex, the Pandectae, was enacted in 533 A.D. The dates of this new Roman law code (529-533 A.D.) are among the more important dates in Bible prophecy.
The Church had used its own laws, as seen in the Pandectae, in a legalistic way.
