It'd come handy regardless of being a farmer or hunter underneath, especially if you're to go on some 'walk about'..
Some have quickly dismissed 'The Book of Law' but content and message-wise it wouldn't be an off choice totally. I think the title is deceiving for many: it is not a book with reference to logic or law as understood in some rigid fashion. It is a book that puts will power and strength to challenge established norms above everything else. Sounds familiar?  |
I was looking around for some research on "The Book of Law" and couldn't find much of anything. Anyway, my impression from watching was that Richard wanted him to pick the "book of law" or "laws". I think young Locke was under the impression he was going to be able to keep the things he chose, so when his eyes went from the book to the knife I think he chose what he'd like to own best. I guess it wasn't some ratty old book.
