What reading level is Our Blessed Dead book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The outstanding significance of the word is not the work, but the weariness of the work. Yes, it is a tired word, which has lost its spring! "And Jesus, being wearied with His journey " !
There you have it, the identical word, carrying the sense of " spent- ness," of limitation, of exhaustion.
And therefore when we are told that "the dead in Christ" "rest from their labors," we are not to take it as meaning that they rest from their work, but from the weariness of work, which is a far [«9] Our ...Blessed Dead nobler emancipation. To take away the faintness is infinitely more gracious than to take us out of the crusade. The redemption of our blessed dead is redemption from tiredness, redemption from the limitations which arise from small capital; it is redemption from the drooping and the wither- ing ; it is entry into the tireless life.
" There everlasting spring abides, And never-withering flowers ! " That is the word which carries the grace of the evangel — " never- withering " — the land where the [20] Our Blessed Dead inhabitants never say, " I am sick." And so we might very ac- curately paraphrase the familiar sentence in our beatitude as fol- lows : " They rest from the labor- iousness of labor," and great serv- ices become their native delight.
