What reading level is The Freedom of Faith book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was an arrangement full of wisdom, in that it was constantly restoring the nation to the great social principles on which it was founded, principles of righteousness and mercy and freedom, — an order linked in with its religion and with sacrifice for sins that were also burdens and bondage, — a vast, stupendous system, overwhelm- ing in its significance, sweeping all about the life THK CHRIST AS A PREACHER. 153 of every man, covering him with its grace, from the misery of outward misfortune ...and mistake to the guilt of secret crimes !
If it is asked where Jesus refers to this system, the answer is in the phrase, " the acceptable year of the Lord." We might read these words many times, and not suspect that Christ referred to this political feature"bf the Jewish commonwealth, unless we had learned that the year of jubilee was com- monly known as " the acceptable year." The phrase is thus taken out of the hands of a narrow theology that uses it as a time-word, — a certain day beyond which there may not be another in which God is gracious, and instead is made to stand for the ushering in of an order and an age of the freedom and mercy and justice presaged by the year of jubilee, an age of spiritual and also po- litical freedom, an eternal reign of righteousness and love.
