What reading level is A More Christian Industrial Order book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the little island of ^gina, slightly less than twice the size of Manhattan in extent, there were at one period 470,000 slaves. "Wealthy Koman land-owners are said to have possessed as many as ten or twenty thousand on their estates. The slave was at his master's disposal: he had no rights of marriage; and for the smallest offense he might be scourged, mutilated, crucified, or thrown to the wild beasts. It is a well known fact that wherever slaves are common, free labor has a low position; an...d the hireling is not esteemed when he is mentioned in the New Testament : " The hireling fleeth because he is an hireling." Jesus was familiar with slavery in its milder Palestinian form; but in one of His parables He alludes to the power of the master to punish a bond- man : " the lord of that slave shall come in a day when he expecteth not and shall cut him with scourg- ing " ; and in another parable He speaks of a master delivering his slave to the tormenters. He gives no specific teaching as to slavery, and it is doubtful whether He judged the institution one way or an- other; but He proclaims the brotherhood of all men as God's children.
