What reading level is The Life of Christ book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Mark adds a few notes ^ on the customs of the Pharisees 1 St. Mark vii, 3, 4.
247 248 THE LIFE OF CHRIST relating to the traditions of the elders about washing. These customs seem to us most unreasonable and absurd, and what is still more surprising is the captious criticisms of the Phari- sees. Why thej should take the trouble to find fault with so small a matter as the neglect of washing of hands before meat is not easy to understand without a knowledge of the signifi- cance of the act. Their... feelings can be better understood by comparison with those of the Moslem regarding his washing before prayer. He believes that if he does not follow correctly the ceremonial ablutions his prayer will be of no avail. ^ It is this attachment to outward observance, and the abso- lute neglect of the necessary inward cleansing, which Jesus forcibly denounced. " Full well, " He said, " ye reject the commandment of God that ye may keep your own traditions. " ^ A still more terrible indictment He brought against them for their neglect to keep the fifth commandment by a mean subter- fuge of their own designing.
