1) First come the patriarchs of the law. They carry the flame of the law, the blueprint of any organization. They have leadership capabilities. They are always able to see the whole and the relationship of the parts to the whole; therefore they are organizers. They can delegate authority. They write the laws; they execute the laws; they administer the laws. And more than this they are organizers in any phase of a project.
