In what ways did religion influence ideas about law enforcement in Anglo-Saxon and Norman England?

In Anglo-Saxon England, religious beliefs often shaped the concept of justice and law enforcement through the inclusion of divine retribution for crimes. This led to the use of oaths, trials by ordeal, and the involvement of local churches in resolving disputes. The Norman Conquest brought changes to law enforcement, introducing more centralized authority and professionalization of law enforcement agencies, but also maintained the influence of religious institutions in matters of justice.
