What reading level is The Expositor 4 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Considering the conspicuous position in the building occupied by all these inscriptions, we must suppose that they had some connexion with the construction. At first I thought that they might have been engraved on the completed churches as a special honour permitted by the ecclesiastical authorities, or even on the buildings after they had fallen into ruins. But both these hypotheses seem inacceptable. So long as there was a Christian population in Barata, it cannot be supposed that the churche...s, even though ruined, lost their sanctity in the popular eye so completely that the pillars of the doorways 308 A CHRISTIAN CITY IN THE BYZANTINE AGE could be used as chance gravestones. The churches were and remained to the end holy places, and could never have been used without permission as cemeteries, and neither grafStti nor unauthorized epitaphs can be supposed to have been placed so conspicuously on them.
Nor is it a sufficient explanation of the facts to say that there was a strong popular desire to be buried in holy ground, and that the right to be buried in the doorway of the church as the most honourable place was granted as a compliment or for money.
