What reading level is The Open Court 20, No.601 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
No food could be prepared during the twenty-four hours from Friday night till the first stars appeared in the sky on Saturday night. No lire could be lit, no housework be done. The Jews were not even per- mitted to hire persons of foreign descent to work for them on Sabbath. For, the commandment expressly refers not only to the manservant and maidservant, but also to "the stranger that is within thy gates." Moreover, work on Sabbath is a crime punishable by death. The law reads: "Six days shall... work be done. But, on the seventh day, there shall be to you a holy day, a Sabbath of rest to the Lord. Whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death." According to the Old Testament, a man who had, on a Sabbath day, picked up wood, in order to make a fire and warm himself, was actually stoned to death by -the Jewish congregation. Under the rule of the Romans, this punishment could, of course, no longer be enforced. The keeping of the Sabbath then became a vohmtarv obligation.
