What reading level is Selections From Josephus book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
(45) SCENES FROM THE JEWISH WAR i 3I skilfully conducted. In a word, had Ananus lived, they would undoubtedly either have come to terms — for he was an effective speaker, whose words carried weight with the people, and was already gaining control over those who thwarted him — or else, had hostilities con- tinued, they would, under such a general, have greatly retarded the victory of the Romans.
With him was linked Jesus, who, though not compar- able with Ananus, excelled the rest of his contemp...oraries.
It was, I suppose, because God had, for its pollutions, condemned the city to destruction and desired to purge the sanctuary by fire, that He thus cut off those who clung to it with such tender affection. So they who but lately were clad in the sacred vestments, had led the cere- monies of world-wide significance' 1 and were reverenced by visitors to the city from every quarter of the earth, were now seen cast out naked, to be devoured by dogs and beasts of prey. Virtue herself, I think, groaned over these men's fate, lamenting that she should have been so completely defeated by Vice.
