What reading level is An Attempt to Ascertain the Character of the Fourth Gospel Especially in Its Re book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the following words of the Dialogue (c. 110) we are reminded of the beautiful imagery in John xv. : " As if any one should prune the fruit-bearing parts of a vine, it. Sprouts out anew into other flourishing and fruit-bearing branches, so is it also with us. " 1 The vine is a favourite image with Hebrew writers ; and it may have been suggested to Justin by the prophets and the psalms. It should be noticed, that the vine is not in this passage, as in John, Christ, but the people of Christ pla...nted by him and God.
These are all the passages in the undoubted writings of Justin Martyr, which, to the best of my knowledge, can be supposed to contain any reference to the writings which bear the name of John. If there be reason to believe, on inde- pendent grounds, that the Fourth Gospel was generally received as an authoritative and apostolic work before the year 138 a. D. , it would not be an unfair inference, that familiar acquaintance with the gospel had occasioned the general similarity of thought and expression which I have pointed out in several passages between the Martyr and the Evangelist, But the similarity in no one instance amounts to a quotation ; and the conformity to the presumed original is much less close than what it is in innumerable passages to the gospels of Matthew and Luke, which are cited everywhere so copiously and so verbally, that it has been often remarked, a very complete history of the life and teachings of Jesus might be made up in the language 1 'Otro?ov iav a/nreKov ris cKTe/Ai) tos KapTrocpopfoavTa.
