| Description | The discovery of treasure during the Roman Republic is known mainly from literary works, where the owner of the treasure was clearly granted the right of possession. The same is true in Jewish law, which is also proven by the text of the Apostle Matthew. Unfortunately, contemporary Jewish law does not give a clear answer as to whether the Jewish regulation was inspired by Roman law, or whether the Jews came to the same solution as the Romans. |
