What reading level is On the Necessity of a Knowledge of the Original Languages of the Scriptures book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And it is evident this must be the case, be- cause, much of the excellence of every writer depends on his style — ^all this is lost in the version. You have, necessarily, the style of the translator, not that of his author. If the former be on a par in the talent for writing with the latter, and if the two languages be in all respects equal, the translation may, as a composi- tion, be equal to the original. But even if the advan- tage in each respect was on the side of the translator, it. does ...not affect our position. The version is not, and cannot be an exact representation of the original. It may be better, or worse, but it is not the same. It is with the mind of the translator we have to do, in every translation. Who knows any thing of Homer from Pope, or Cowper, or Voss, or Sotheby ? It is not the OP THE SCBIPTURES. 201 Grecian poet we learn by reading these versions. They are indeed all excellent, all, to a sufficient extent, faith- fijl; yet each and all fail of bringing- us acquainted with the father of profane poetry.
