What reading level is The New Bible Country book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The interest of the biblical writers centered in just those things which charm us most, viz. , personalia, individual traits of character, every-day happenings. These writers had access to documents from which they could have constructed a more extensive and orderly nar- rative of events. The fact that they did not choose so to use these documents, even while making selections from them, proves that they had an- other purpose in mind.
Again, the purpose of the Bible is not to teach science. Thi...s almost seems too obvious to call for proof. One thing is certain, the inhabitants of the new country spend no time in seeking to harmonize the statements of the Bible with the conclusions of modern science, for the simple reason that such harmony is impossible and un- necessary. They think one might as well try to harmonize the Ptolemaic with the Copernican system of astronomy. The so-called science of the Bible is not science in the strict sense. It cannot be judged by the standards of the present day.
