\nThere are several examples of Biblical narratives describing ho w a character managed to obtain a right or circumvent a legal obstacle for goals of either general or individual interests.
\nDepending on the situations\, cheating appears as a personal and selfish strategy or as th e last resort of desperate causes.
\nThe paper will review three cas es of such tactical plans\, namely the stories of Esau and Jacob (Gn 27\, 1-40)\, of Leah and Rachel&rsquo\;s wedding (Gn 29\, 16-30) and of Tamar a nd Juda (Gn 38\, 6-26).
\nSophie Dé\;mare-Lafont has been Prof essor of history of law at the University Panthé\;on-Assas (Paris) s ince 2008 and Directeur d&rsquo\;é\;tudes at the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes (Paris) since 1999.
\nShe specialises in the study of Ancient Near Eastern law (Mesopotamia &ndash\; Bible)\, with a PhD devoted to the criminal law of women.
\nShe has edited two books about oath s in the Ancient Near East and legal formulae and is currently editing the proceedings of a conference about the loan documents.
\nShe has wri tten many articles in French and foreign periodicals\, and has contributed to several collective handbooks including \;A \;Hist ory of Ancient Near Eastern Law\, edited by the late R. Westbrook in 2003.
