as it did的理解

islam,on the other hand,represented a radical breakaway from the arab paganism that preceded it; islamic law is the result of an examination, from a religious angle,(examination) of legal subject matter that was far from uniform,comprising as it did the various components of the laws of pre-islamic arabia and numerous legal elements taken over from the non-arab peoples of the conquered territories.

怎么理解这句话的 as it did?以及是 of legal subject matter?

1. as it doesas it did :是习语。从它的结构来看,实际就是表示方式,意为“in fact,  actually”。前者跟现在时连用,后者跟过去时连用。因为它是有语义的,不可省略。as it did 作为方式修饰现在分词 comprising。意为“实际上包括前伊斯兰阿拉伯国际法律的各个组成部分

2. of legal subject matter that was far from uniform,是前面 examination 的定语,被 from a religious angle 分隔了that was far from uniform matter的定语从句。
