What reading level is Liberal Judaism An Essay book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That would take too long to explain. At first it was oral. The priests were the earliest teachers and judges, and their decisions on matters both moral and ritual were gradually written down. Moses was priest and judge, as well as lawgiver and prophet ; and as his reputation grew, all laws given in his spirit, and in believed accordance with his teaching (a very vague and elastic proviso), were spoken of as Mosaic. They were put in his mouth, and doubtless a younger generation honestly believed... that the laws of an older generation were actually his. So things went on, but till the age of Jeremiah there was no general " Law of Moses, " no one code acknowledged by the people as a whole. There were ioo LIBERAL JUDAISM CHAP.
" Mosaic " laws, but not a Mosaic Law. The first Law is not the Pentateuch as an entirety, but the Book of Deuteronomy, and of that book only a core.
Deuteronomy seems to have been the pro- duct of an alliance between the prophets and the priests. It was a kind of compromise.
