From the starting point of a short passage in the preamble to the Declaration of Independence Schwitters builds an enormous edifice in defense of Natural Law, weaving together evidence from history, philosophy, political science, theology, . . .. Perhaps most impressive are his linguistic assertions consisting of detailed dissections of words and phrases from six languages: Hebrew, Greek, Latin, French, German, and obviously English.
Sounds like Schwitters is diving deep into the foundations of Natural Law, using language and history to back it up. That’s a unique approach!

It does indeed help in understanding his argument. But that is all in the book, not the article.
