What reading level is Post Biblical History of the Jews From the Close of the Old Testament About Th book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Was the Greek tongue known to the Egyptians at all, at the early period when this trans- lation is assumed to have been made? We know that the Egyptians were extremely jealous of foreigners; that the Greeks, in particular, were not permitted to hold even com- mercial intercourse with Egypt, till under Psammetichus, of the 26th of Manetho's dynasties. What, then, could induce Hermes, whom no one knows, in the land of Seriad, which no one can find, to translate an inscription on pillars, which no... one has ever seen, from a sacred dialect, of which no one has ever heard, into the Greek tongue, which no Egyptian then spoke ? And, to crown the absurdity, Her- mes, who lived before the flood, wrote the history of events that transpired in the days of Moses ! Was this Hermes prescient, that he knew beforehand what would happen? Was he omniscient, that he could by anticipation write the continuous history of so many thousands of years as those recorded in the "Dynasties"? Verily, when Manetho claimed credence for his history, on authority such as that which he adduces, and we have dissected, he cannot have expected ever to have other readers than his own credulous and marvel-loving Greek and Egyptian contemporaries.
