Description:

Milton R. Konvitz analyzes the connections between the Torah and the American Constitution. He elaborates on the centrality of law both in America and in Judaism: the first bound to the Constitution and the Framers, the second bound to Revelation, expanding to a legal system fashioned and refashioned by human interpretation.
