What reading level is The Am Ha-Aretz: the Ancient Hebrew Parliament : a Chapter in the ... book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The word Rosh soon acquired a larger sense. When the census of Israel was to be taken (Exod. 3O12, Numbers I2) the expression used is Nsa Rosh, which means literally, lifting up the head, but prac- tically, taking up the number or sum of the people.
Of course Nsa Rosh as census-taking is an exercise of political power. But the expression has also a judicial sense in two narratives, Gen. 4O13.19, Jer. 5231. In both instances persons who have been undergoing punishment have their cases reconsider...ed.
Digitized by VjOOQ IC 46 THE AM HA-ARETZ The generally accepted meaning of the term Nsa Rosh in these cases is to pardon, to restore to honor. Unfor- tunately for this definition one of the three persons affected by the process of Nsa Rosh, was not pardoned but hanged.
The usual definition is therefore untenable unless we assume that in one of the finest pieces of writing in Genesis, the history of Joseph, the beauty of the style and the gravity of the theme (the loss of a gentleman's honor, life and estate), are suddenly marred by the unexpected levity of a play upon words.
