What reading level is The Open Court 20, No.603 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
You are compelled by the logic of your position to say that the association of the Christian Sunday with the resurrection was an afterthought ; and you think the resurrection "ought to have taken place on Tuesday," because Jesus is said to have predicted that he would rise after three days (Mk. ix. 31, x. 34.), and also to have said, "For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale ; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth" (Mt. xi...i.40).
506 THE OPEN COURT.
I presume you do not regard these as genuine sayings of Jesus, but you think of them as growing out of a primitive tradition to the effect that Jesus rose on the fourth day, i. e., Tuesday. But if this were the earlier tradition, it would be strange that it left no more trace than this. It seems to me most likely that the words in Mark about rising after three days are based on a genuine saying of Jesus.
As the Messianic hope commonly involved a belief in a general resurrection, and as Jesus believed the Kingdom was close at hand, it would not be at all strange for him to say that if his enemies put him to death he would rise in a short time.
