What reading level is Judaism Its History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
From the present, in which they lack the energy to realize their ardent wishes, they take refuge in the future, a natural transition to which they are unable to find, and for which they long the more fervently, and which they picture to themselves with the more brilliant embellishments. "It will be otherwise, " is their continual consolation; the weaker their present confidence, the bolder the poetic imageries of a brilliant future.
Judaism knows no such weakness, it is deeply and fully convinc...ed of an independent spiritual life ; it regards man's likeness to God, impressed upon him by the Divinity Himself, as none other than a spiritual attribute. The directness with which it speaks of a spiritual power, both of the spiritually living God and of man as living through the spirit, this profound conviction permeating all THE FUTURE WORLD. 177 its writings, is a guaranty for the Jewish belief, that the spirit is everlasting and can never be cut off. But it does not place this belief in the fore- ground, it has not designated this earth as a valley of tears, or pictured the reward to come beyond the grave in brilliant colors ; it has never com- manded us to destroy this earth as something vain and sinful ; it has never demanded that earthly life should be nipped because it is but a time of pro- bation.
