I am not even going to bother watching this video, namely because I am sitting in a training conference with a grouchy old English atheist who is already freaked out that I believe such rubbish.
I don't need to watch it, though, to know that Huckabee is an idiot. The Constitution is inspired by the Word of God. Where do you think we got the three branches of government?
Isaiah 33:22 For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us.
No, because the verse is alluding to the Trinity in its three mainfestations, One God in three persons. The government is one entity but it has three distinct parts. Each part is not the same as the other, but is still the same government.
Also, look at the kings of united Israel. The King did not hold ecclesiastical authority at all. That was exercised by the High Priest. That example also argues for the separation of church and state in its proper application.
No, the Jews did not believe in the trinity. In fact, they call Christians polytheists.
Isaiah was merely dropping a clue even he did not understand. It is one of many that appear in the Old Testament pointing to the coming of Jesus Christ. Comprehension by the writer was not necessary, otherwise there would be no Old Testament prophecy of Jesus.
