Abstract
- The purpose of the article is to focus on the early history of law in our era, when secular law and religious one shaped each of their own legal system, but at the same time were not clearly distinguishable and separable. The work highlights some important but key nuances that seem to particularly characterize the dimensions of religious and secular law. The main results of the article form a set of conclusions about the presence of secular and spiritual values in the common legal culture of the distant Roman Empire. In times, when canon or religious law, which manifested itself as one of the facets of values of the Christian church, began to become an inevitable part of secular law. In the end, it is important to note that the work as a whole concludes that the political and dogmatic, hence the divine and traditions of the Roman Empire of the ancient state, were became more and more vividly and obviously apparent not only in laws, decisions and edicts of the empire, but also in their potential and possible clash with the acts and regulations issued by the church as a competing force for the power of the empire.
