“When a religious teacher questioned Jesus on the law, Jesus answered, ‘How do you read it?’ (Luke 10:26). That’s fundamentally the same question that lawyers routinely face from the courts in cases involving the interpretation of legal documents, including the Constitution. That question motivates a new book of nine essays edited by Mark J. Boone and Mark D. Eckel, entitled Originalism in Theology and Law: Comparing Perspectives on the Bible and Constitution. Fittingly, Boone’s introduction begins with George W. Bush’s short-lived nomination of Harriet Miers to the United States Supreme Court.” (12/17/24)
