What did those in the Age of Conscience use to make a moral code?

Abraham lived between the Garden and Sinai.
Here is what God said of His friend:
Genesis 26:5 (ESV),
5 ...Abraham listened to My voice and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My
laws...
The Hebrew text for "laws" is וְתוֹרֹתָֽי - wə·ṯō·w·rō·ṯāy, from the Hebrew word
torah.
See:

The LXX uses νομιμα - no·mi·ma, from the Greek word
nomos.
See:

How did Abraham achieve this obedience to God's law, if as you have claimed in this thread, as your opening point no less, that people in this time "had no law of God"?
