That’s about as good a spin as you can put on it. “Resonance” with the Bible.

The author’s resonance reminds me of the imaginary “penumbras” and “emanantions” of the Constitution that the Supreme Court held required the deaths of millions of babies. I’m sure Justice White would have used the word “resonance” along with the other two had he thought to include it also in Griswold v. Connecticut (the case just before Roe v. Wade that created the right to privacy out of thin air).

That was Justice William O. Douglas, not Whizzer White. Douglas also opined that that trees should having standing to sue, in Sierra Club v. Morton. I don’t think there has ever been a better argument for a mandatory retirement age for federal judges.
