What is Law?

Laws generally arise from the moral prescriptions of the societies. A law is made by a government. A law is a statement of a moral prescription and it specifies the penalties imposed on people who disobey law. The difference between moral prescription and law is that, law is enforced by imposing penalties on people who are not following the legal prescription.
