Roots, Rights and Reason with Lee Smith
From Exodus to Independence: America’s Biblical Roots
Episode Fifteen-From Exodus to Independence: America’s Biblical Roots
What do America’s Founders owe to the story of Exodus? Dr. Wilfred McClay, Professor of History at Hillsdale College and co-editor of Jewish Roots of American Liberty, joins Lee Smith to explore the biblical foundations of freedom and how they shaped the American experiment.
From Jefferson and Franklin’s proposed Great Seal depicting the Israelites’ flight from Egypt to the Puritans’ vision of a “new Zion” in the New World, McClay explains how Scripture inspired America’s earliest generations. He shows how the Exodus narrative echoed through the Revolution, guided Abraham Lincoln, fueled abolitionists and civil rights leaders, and continues to serve as a symbol of deliverance from bondage in every age.
This episode is about more than history, it’s about the enduring link between faith and liberty, the covenantal limits that give freedom its true meaning, and why remembering America’s biblical roots is vital in the face of rising antisemitism and threats to Western civilization.
