To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But, if he knew the Rabbinical literature as he knows the very much more accessible and more easily managed Apocalyptic literature, he would not have put forward a theory so wide of the mark as I believe his to be. It is hardly indeed to be expected that anyone who can see in the Apocalyptic literature the splendid and wonderful qualities which Dr. Charles discerns there, should be able to read the deeper meaning of the Rabbinical literature, the Halachah which to the Gentile is a stumbling blo...ck, and the Haggadah which he deems to be foolishness. But until the Gentile (in this case, Dr. Charles and his school) . Does learn the secret of the Talmud and the Midrash, he will try in vain to solve the problem of the post~7o Judaism by the key of Apocalyptic alone. All he can discern is this, that after 70, the prevailing Judaism did not encourage the Apocalyptic type of teaching ; it therefore gradually disappeared and went elsewhere, to people who could better appreciate its peculiar qualities, and who no doubt looked upon it with more favour because Judaism did not like it.
