Did they practice abortion at that time? What does sin literally mean? What about a case in which during a struggle with a man a fetus is aborted as a result? Soul for soul? Life for life?

A man who suspected his wife was pregnant by another man could bring her before the priest where she would have to drink 'bitter water' that would curse her if the accusation was true. It sounds a lot like an abortifacent and in any case the fetus would not survive the curse.

A sin is a transgression against divine law.

That case is actually described in the Bible, the punishment is that the woman's husband may choose to require a fine be paid to him. If the woman herself is more serious injured or killed, the law of talion comes into play. I'm not familiar with a 'soul for soul' option in the Bible.
Exodus 21:22-25
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
