What reading level is The Bible Readers Companion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
While they claimed delegated authority as witnesses, they did not lay claim to personal infallibility ; and at times even Peter was led away into his old timidity 8 and had to be taken to task by Paul (Galatians ii. N). And who was Paul ?
He, too, was an Apostle, though "one born out of due time. " He assumed exactly the same authority that the Twelve possessed, and laid down the rules of faith and life as strictly as they did in all the Churches which he founded. The Traditions * which he comm...itted to them were what had been committed to him by the Lord Himself (i Corinthians xv. 3 ; Galatians i. 12) ; in fact, he seemed slow to depend on the Twelve for anything. The Christian Churches founded in those early days seem to have had two sources of Truth : (i. ) the Tradition of the Twelve, which we now have in the Gospels, the first part of the Acts, and the Epistles of St. James, St. Peter, St. Jude, and St. John. If we only had these we should do well ; but we have also (ii. ) the Pauline Tradition, contained in Paul's speeches and letters which, though intensely Jewish, breathe an inter- national spirit.
