What reading level is Ben-Hur; a Tale of the Christ book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" I am judging by what he says." "Is that all?" " No ; there is a much better sign — his spirit." "Ay; but, Malluch, his idea of vengeance — what is 232 of tbe Cbriet its scope ? Does he limit it to the few who did him the wrong, or does he take in the many ? And more — is his feeling but the vagary of a sensitive boy, or has it the sea- soning of suffering manhood to give it endurance ? You know, Malluch, the vengeful thought that has root merely in the mind is but a dream of idlest sort which... one clear day will dissipate ; while revenge the passion is a disease of the heart which climbs up, up to the brain, and feeds itself on both alike." In this question, Simonides for the first time showed signs of feeling ; he spoke with rapid utterance, and with clenched hands and the eagerness of a man illustrating the disease he described.
" Good my master," Malluch replied, " one of my reasons for believing the young man a Jew is the intensity of his hate. It was plain to me he had himself under watch, as was natural, seeing how long he has lived in an atmosphere of Eoman jealousy; yet I saw it blaze — once when he wanted to know Ilderim's feeling towards Rome, and again when I told him the story of the sheik and the wise man, and spoke of the question, ' Where is he that is born King of the Jews?'" Simonides leaned forward quickly.
