I didn’t know how much I needed Originalism in Theology and Law until I read it. Even in biblical hermeneutics, I find from this book that my so-called expertise is built upon unexamined presuppositions in need of philosophical reengineering. Theology and constitutional law both need a book which forces us to think through definitions, follow logical progressions of thought, examine evidence, and creatively apply ideas to authoritative texts like the American Constitution and the divine Word of God. How I wish that people of all positions, both legal and theological, could read this book and learn to think through their views more carefully. -- Robert K. Wetmore, Forman Christian College The authority of both Holy Scripture and our Constitution depend on their conveying discernible truths which can be known through acts of interpretation. Originalists argue that these truths are bound up with the intentions of the authors of these works – God, in the case of Scripture, and the Framers, in the case of the Constitution. The essays in this masterful volume defend originalism and explore the similarities and differences between constitutional and Biblical originalism. A must read for anyone interested in the challenges to the originalist project. -- John Hill, Indiana University
