- 7. De finitio o ‘ w b St. Tho a Aq n f La ’ y m s uina - s Law is nothing else than an ordinance of reason for the common good, promulgated by him who has the care of the community… human law has the nature of law in so far as it partakes of right reason… So far as it deviates from reason, it is called an unjust law and has the nature, not of law, but of violence… such are acts of violence rather than laws because, as St. Augustine says, a law that is not just seems to be no law at all. -The Essence of Law (615)
