What reading level is Lectures in Divinity volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
SECTION IV.
Before I proceed to state the amount of the ar- gument from prophecy, there is one other objection to that argument which requires to be mentioned. The objection arises from a kind of verbal criticism, but does not deserve upon that account to be dis- missed as unimportant.
It was long ago observed, that many of the pas- sages quoted from the Old Testament in the New, do not exactly agree with the text of our copies of the Old Testament. The apology commonly made for this difference... was, that our Lord and his apostles did not quote from the Hebrew, but from the Sep- tuagint translation, which was known and respected in Judea. But, upon accurate investigation, it "w^as found that the quotations do not always correspond with the Septuagint ; and that there are many which agree neither with the Septuagint nor with the He- brew. It was insinuated, therefore, by the adver- saries of Christianity, that our Lord and his apostles had not been scrupulous in their method of quoting 6 Ijif EXTERNAL EVIDENCES the Old Testament ; but wishing to ground Christ- ianity upon Judaism, and finding it difficult to lay this foundation with the materials that existed, had accommodated the words of the Old Testament to their argument, and made the prophets say what it was necessary for the conclusiveness of that argu- ment, they should seem to say.
