What reading level is A History of the Work of Redemption book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Indeed most of the words used respecting redemption, have various significa- tions. Thus sometimes divines use merit for the whole price that Christ offered, both satisfactorily and positively meritorious. And so the word satis- 'faction is sometimes used, not only for his propitia- PURCHASE OF REDEMPTION. 219 tion, but also for his meritorious obedience. For in. Some sense, not only suffering the penalty, but posi- tively obeying, is needful to satisfy the law. The reason of this various use o...f these terms seems to be, that satisfaction and merit do not differ so much really as relatively. They both consist in paying a valuable price, a price of infinite value: but that price, as it respects a debt to be paid, is called satis- faction ; and as it respects a positive good to be ob- tained, is called merit. The difference between paying a debt and making a positive purchase, is more relative than essential. He who lays down a price to pay a debt, does in some sense make a pur- chase ; he purchases liberty from the obligation.
