Can you guess the most-cited book in America's founding-era politics? Hint: it wasn’t Montesquieu. It was Deuteronomy. Historian Daniel Dreisbach joins Unscrolled to reveal just how deeply the Bible shaped the Constitution, from checks and balances to due process and the treason clause. Listen in for a conversation that will challenge what you thought you knew about America’s founding… and maybe even reframe how we think about the roots of self-government.
