https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rules_of_Acquisition

"Unabridged and fully annotated with all 47 commentaries, all 900 major 
and minor judgments, all 10,000 considered opinions. There's a rule for 
every conceivable situation." There is also a note about The Unwritten 
Rule: "When no appropriate rule applies... make one up."

Sounds like the Talmud.
