What reading level is The Religion of Israel a Historical Sketch book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

His throne was Jahveh 's throne 2, and each monarch was in his degree a type of the coming Messiah.
In this connection the building of the Temple at Jerusalem by Solomon was an event of peculiar importance.
Thereby the religious policy of David reached its climax. Solomon's intention apparently was to provide a stately shrine for his own purposes ; he built it in close proximity to the royal palace and borrowed some prominent features in the design from the great temple of Melkarth at Tyre. He
...did not in any way interfere with the cultus carried on at the 'high places' of Palestine; at these local shrines the debasing in- fluences of ba W-worship might, and often did, make themselves felt. But in Jerusalem at least the religion of Jahveh as the only God of Israel was firmly established ; and the erection of the Temple was a first step towards that future centralisation of worship which to later generations seemed to be most con- sistent with the Divine will, and which paved the way for the religion of Judaism 3 .
