What reading level is Ritual of the New Testament book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' But we are concerned only with ceremonial in the strict sense. And I assert, that the ceremo- nial of Jewish worship was neither a yoke to the fathers of whom St. Peter spoke, nor to St. Peter himself; and that the ceremonial of Catholic worship, far from being a yoke, was the solace and delight of our Catholic fathers, as it is of ourselves.
St. Peter neither did nor could speak of the worship of the Temple, with its splendour or its symbolic rites, as a yoke that his fathers could not bear.... He would have contradicted every fact of Jewish history, and almost every page of Scripture. If Jewish worship had been a yoke, could the prophet Isaias have promised : ' You shall have a song, as in the night of the sanctified solemnity, and joy of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe, to come into the mountain of the Lord, to the mighty One of Israel' ?(Isa. Xxx. 29); or could David have exclaimed : ' How lovely are Thy tabernacles, O Lord of hosts ! My soul longeth and fainteth for the courts of the Lord'?
