Summary
The Biblical Case for Nationalism Against Global Empire | Crosspolitic
Israeli political theorist Yoram Hazony makes the biblical case that nationalism is actually God's design for human flourishing. Drawing from Moses, the Hebrew prophets, and centuries of Protestant political thought, Hazony explains why independent nations with defined borders represent God's alternative to both tribal chaos and imperial tyranny. We dive deep into how the Old Testament laid the foundation for the Anglo-American tradition, why "neutral" public education was always a myth, and how conservative states can lead America back to biblical governance. If you've been told that loving your country makes you dangerous, this conversation will equip you with the scriptural and historical truth.
