To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It deals with personal and national affairs in every stage of human progress and experience. Its text is in poetry and in prose. It has to do with the most interesting and exalted subjects, such as the earliest origin and history of the human race; the providential government of God; the exhibition of the alternate progress and declension of civilizations; the ways of God in dealing with men; the consummation of Divine wisdom, purity, love, and life in the Person of Jesus of Nazareth. The scope... of its records embraces laws, hymns, prophecies, correspondence, philosophy, nup- tial songs, and elegies, in their bearing upon national, social, and individual life. One strain of agreement runs through it all a harmonious presentation of the most sublime views of God, as to His Nature, Character, Words and Works; as to man, his origin, fall, redemp- tion, hope and destiny; his duties and privileges, his rela- tionships in life, here and hereafter. It was written by illumined ones from every walk of life, in the most simple style, yet the most beautiful, dignified and ornate diction.
