To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

S. X. 2 18 . SOME INTERESTINa SYRIAN have been a church: though it does not lie, like most ancient churches, in the direction from west to east. Or it might possibly have been begun as a fortress: though there would seem to be nothing in the vicinity to guard. At any rate these walls cannot have been constructed later than the first centuries after the Christian Era, and the size of the stones points rather to an earlier age. The spot is called by the Arabs Ramet-el-Khalil. The Jews of Hebron c...all it the House of Abraham, and regard this as the place of Abraham s tent and terebinth at Mamre. May we not perhaps suppose that these massive walls are indeed the work of Jewish hands, erected here in ancient days around the spot where the founder of theii* race had dwelt?" In a note Robinson suggests that, if this supposition be not admissible, the remains might perhaps be regarded as belonging to the church erected by Constantine, near the supposed place of Abraham's terebinth.
There can be little doubt that the latter supposition is far superior to the former, and we shall probably see reason to conclude that it is the right interpretation.
