Abstract

The question of traditional (religious) approach to understanding the essence and value of law (formallaw) is considered. The necessity of in-depth and unhurried study of theological and philosophical texts thatreveal the purpose of the state and the law in public life is emphasized. It is grounded that following the “spiritof law” does not mean denying the “letter of the law”; there should be a general attitude — if the claims aremoral and just, but it is necessary to realize them without violating the legal form required by the law.
