What reading level is The Bible Verified book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Two other very striking incidents are worth mentioning because of their important bearing. Since we read in Ha^ai, "and will make thee as a signet,^' very significantly, within a few years, at the sinking of a shaft to the depth of twenty-two feet at the city of Jerusalem, there has been discovered amid fragments of pottery and glass a gentleman's seal, a finely-grained black stone, with the inscription, ^^Haggai the son of 8hd>aniahJ^ The lettering is of the kind used at the time of the Babylo...nian Captivity. The prophet Haggai was one of the exiles who returned to Jerusalem under the lead of Zerubbabel. The seal found may therefore be the one which suggested Haggai's words when he said of his leader, " and will make thee as a signet." The prophet may have held up before Zerubbabel his own signet, and possibly the very seal lately 106 THE BIBLE VERIFIED.
exhumed, and certainly inscribed with the name of ^^HaggaV'^ When, again, like that noble Eoman who bought at its full price the very ground on which the army of Hannibal was encamped, Jere- miah with all confidence in the future made his ancestral purchase in his native Anathoth over which the Babylonian engines of war were rolling, the prophet said of this famous business transaction, " I subscribed the deed, and sealed it/' And how he prized his seal is indicated by that other verse in his prophecy where he represents God as saying of the king of Judah that though he " were the signet upon my right hand, yet would I pluck thee thence." In connection with all this is the very suggestive fact that among recent discoveries in Egypt, where we find the prophet in his later life, is a remarkable seal with Phoenician characters which read, ^^To the Prosperity of Jeremiah.'^ The type of lettering is assigned to the seventh century before Christ, and hence the seal, it has been said, "may be a veritable relic of the great Hebrew prophet Jeremiah." These surely are wonderful incidental confirmations of the prophetic writings.
