What reading level is The Bible And Temperance Or the True Scriptural Basis of the Temperance Moveme book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Ixiii. 1-3). Smith's Bib. Die.
Yayin, applied to Grape Juice. 105 Of course our interpretation of these passages has been disputed, and criticism has done its best to shake their testimony in our favour. Our interpretation is natural, and involves no wresting of the language, but the testi- mony is too strong to be admitted without question. Accordingly, our opponents say, "Whilst we hold that yayin means the fermented juice of the grape, we hold also that it may be applied poetically and prole...ptically to the juice of the grape. " Thus what we contend for is admitted, but in order to weaken the testimony of the passages, the language is supposed to be poetic or proleptic.
With regard to the passages quoted from Isaiah and Jeremiah, we think the language literal, and the simple expression of fact, and should therefore be so understood. And if men are at liberty to wrest the literal language of Scripture in this way, in order to make it square with their theories, there is an end of language as the medium of thought or of truth, since men can make it say whatever they please.
