What reading level is History of the Reformation in Germany And Switzerland Chiefly volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Only the ISTew Testament and the five books of Moses were translated at the Wartburg, and even of these it was for the most part but the first draft that was there prepared. The THE TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE. 145 remaining books of the Old Testament appeared later, and tlie entire translation was not completed until 1534, This, how- ever, need not hinder us from here reviewing the whole work, and estimating it with a due regard to the standpoint of the time in which it originated.
Any one who is... acquainted with the difficulties which, even at the present day, beset the most learned philologist in a translation of the Old and New Testaments, will not only find it comprehensible that several revisions were necessary before the work arrived at that degree of perfection in which we possess it, but he will be amazed that it attained to such a degree at all. I do not intend to say that Luther's translation is in all respects one that it is impossible to improve upon. Every unprejudiced person recognises its defects, and nought save a senseless fanaticism could entertain the idea of em- bellishing even the errors of this translation by assuming them to be the product of divine inspiration.
