To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We have already made acquaintance with the scribes and their work during the age succeeding Ezra, and acquired some notion of the priestly legislation and the oral tradition by means of which it was interpreted and amplified. The scribes carried on their work in the same spirit under the rule of Alexander the Great and his successors. The people were more and more aff'ected by their influence, and the Law became the guiding prin- ciple by which the pious Israelite decided what he should do and ...what he should not do. At the same time, the tradition was continually undergoing amplification to meet contemporary needs ; and many of the psalms in our collection date from the period we are discussing. The Book of Chronicles, which was WTitten about 250 years THE JEWS IN THE AGE PRECEDING THE CHRISTIAN ERA. 173 before Christ, is particularly important in indicating the spiritual and intellectual tendencies of the day. It was originally united in one work with Ezra and Nehemiah — not that the whole came from one pen ; only, one author gathered together the existing records of Ezra and Nehemiah into a more extended work under his own hand.
