What reading level is The Gospel of John And Christian Origins book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

We must recognize that a literary work or a fragment of tradition is a primary source for the historical situation out of which it arose, and is only a secondary source for the historical details for which it gives information.[1] Written in 1926, these words are as true today as they were then and are no less appropriate as a defense of historical criticism against what its advocates call the third quest than they were as Bultmann used them, that is to say, as a defense of form criticism agains...t attempts being made at the time to use the Synoptic Gospels as sources for the life of Christ. So let us consider the significance of the simple fact that the Gospels were written many years after the events that they record. Though narrating events that took place in the first half of the first century ce, the evangelists were addressing themselves to their own contemporaries in the second half of the same century. So we have to bear in mind the differences between the social and political conditions prevailing during Jesus’ lifetime and those of the time of the composition of the Gospels.[2] That these differences were so great is almost entirely consequent upon the catastrophic failure of the Jewish uprising against Rome in 66 ce.
