What reading level is The Quest for Truth book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
24, " For this Agar is Mount Sinai in Arabia. " In what sense can it be true that Agar, the slave wife of Abraham, is the same as Mount Sinai ? Clearly it is categorically untrue, and is true only by remote analogy ; is only metaphorically true. Or again, Paul says, i Cor. X. 4: "for they [our fathers] drank of the spiritual rock that followed them ; and that rock was Christ. " Obviously the statement is analogical, ' not categorical. But more important still in the present consideration is the... statement of Jesus ' The statement is evidence of a survival in the mind of Paul of that curious Rabbinical tradition that the rock which Moses struck followed the Israelites in their wilderness wanderings, to afford them supplies of water in the desert. In the complex mentality of Paul, Rabbinical tradition played a much more considerable part than is commonly recognized. His identification of the traditional rock with Christ is not the least significant of the clues we have to his modes of thought.
