I'm guessing here, but I think he may be referring to the Christian idea of the "old covenant" in the Tanakh, and the "new covenant" of the New Testament. Two laws.\nOn a side note I find his Q&A fascinating. When he's on, he comes up with some really clever stanzas. Seems a little out there quite often, but he truly has the soul of a poet.

An act that violates the law in its self, but is considered legal given the situation. For example, killing someone in self defense. Murder in its self is a crime, but protecting one's life if threatened by bodily harm or injury is legal. So, in short, killing in self defense is a legal crime.

It is a partof a natural law.\n\nThe natural law or law of nature is a system of justice that exists independently of the positive law of a given political order. Its usage has varied through its history. It currently has a meaning in both moral theory and legal theory, despite the fact that the core claims of the two kinds of theory are logically independent. According to natural law ethical theory, the moral standards that govern human behavior are, in some sense, objectively derived from the nature of human beings or the cosmos in general. According to natural law legal theory, the authority of at least some legal standards necessarily derives, at least in part, from considerations having to do with the moral merit of those standards.

Criminal law (also known as penal law) is the body of statutory and common law that deals with crime and the legal punishment of criminal offenses. There are four theories of criminal justice: punishment, deterrence, incapacitation, and rehabilitation. It is believed that imposing sanctions for the crime, society can achieve justice and a peaceable social order. \n\n This differs from civil law in that civil actions are disputes between two parties that are not of significant public concern.

Law is a General Written Rule that promotes Justice.\n\nThe first problem we encounter with law is that it is written.  The problem with writing is that words can only approximate concepts.  And if you don't believe this, try writing in 250 words how you feel about, say, your mother.  Individuals may denote or connote words differently.  That means that you're necessarily using an imprecise instrument to capture a precise thing.\n\nLaw is General.  It is written broadly to be adaptable to many situations.  But each situation is unique.  Many cannot even be imagined at the time law is written.  So it's generality makes it an imprecise vehicle for justice.\n\nAnd what is Justice?  It's whatever the lawmakers think is fair.  And that may have nothing to do with what actually is.

The practice of law is the profession of giving legal advice, and acting as a representive of your client. As noted above, that goal is different than the ethical rules which govern such practice.\n\nAs others have commented, there are specific rules that govern the conduct of attorneys. While the details vary by state, most are pretty similar, and demand honesty with the client and the court, fairness, confidentiality, loyalty, integrity, and avoiding conflicts of interest or self-serving actions. \n\nSadly, there are many attorneys who violate those codes of ethics, either occasionally by being enthusiastic, or deliberately cheating as a means of gaining a tactical advantage. And those who do hurt the reputation of the profession for everyone else.

Legislation is law that is made by Parliament or Congress (or a simular body, usually termed "the Legislature") which is an elected body. \n\nIn countries with a consitution, legislation must be supported by a valid grant of power in the consitution, otherwise it will not be a valid law.\n\nLegislation is one of the ways laws are created. Other means include through the decisions of the Courts (Precedent) or by delegation of legal power to a certain person (usually a Minister or Secretary) to make laws (subordinate or deligated legislation).
