What reading level is History of the Jews From the Earliest Times to the Present Day volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The next campaign of the Romans was evidently di- rected against the cities in the mountains. Legend relates how 100, 000 Romans marched into the citadel of Tur-Simon with drawn swords, and how, during three days and nights, they massacred the inhabitants. The fifty fortified places occupied by the Jews fell one after another, into the hands of the enemy, and the Roman generals gave battle to the Jewish army on fifty-two, or, according to some authorities, on fifty-four occasions. The circle dr...awn round Bar-Cochba and the flower of his army became ever narrower. All fugitives had betaken themselves, to his side, in order to escape the sword of destruction and to find a place of refuge, and on the spot where the two greatest gene- rals of the time Julius Severus and Bar-Cochba were opposed, the decisive conflict was to take place.
Bethar was, no doubt, filled to overflowing by the contingents which came in from all sides. The sources could not speak with sufficient hyperbole of this final scene of the defence ; they relate, amongst other things, that several hundreds of schools existed in Bethar, and that the numbers of the pupils were so great that they boasted that they could overthrow the enemy with their writing-reeds.
