What reading level is The Great Awakening of 1740 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Suffice it to say that about 1740 the revival reappeared, not only at Northampton and vicinity, but in almost every church throughout New England. The same indications of overwhelming spir- itual power were manifest in many places under the ordinary ministry. In numerous instances the people would so cry out in public service, that pastors were obliged to pause in the preaching from time to time to allow the tumult to subside. And in some cases it was customary to carry out of the church to som...e neighboring house those that were overcome by the power, in order that the services at the church might proceed.
To add to the interest, Whitefield trav- ersed the land, preaching to those im- mense audiences that frequently assem- bled in the open air because no church could contain them, and cavalcades of de- voted friends accompanied him from one town to another, thus transmitting the en- thusiasm from place to place. Edwards was delighted to have him visit Northamp- ton, and himself sat in his own pulpit weeping like a child, as that matchless preacher swayed with his burning pathos 58 the auditors who were usually fed on the more argumentative sort of preaching.
