What reading level is The Spirits in Prison And Other Studies On the Life After Death book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the Liturgy of St. Mark we have the following as part of the Anajphora, or prayer of oblation. '* Lord our God, give peace to the souls of our fathers and brethren who have fallen asleep in Jesus, remembering our forefathers of old, our fathers, patriarchs, prophets, apostles, martyrs, confessors, bishops, and the souls of all the holy and just men who have died in the Lord " {ihid. P. 60). Like passages are found in the Liturgies that bear the names of St. Basil and St. Chrysostom (Neale, A...nc. Lit pp. 18, 19, 65, 122, 136). In the Liturgy which forms the last book of the Apostolic Constitutions (viii. 41), but which seems to have the character of an ideal pattern rather than to represent the actual use of any historic Church, the prayer assumes a more indi- vidual form, and its exceeding beauty will justify, I think, a quotation in extenso.
" Thou who art by nature immortal, and hast no end of Thy being, from whom every creature, whether mortal or immortal, is derived ; who didst make man a natural creature, the citizen of this world, in his constitution mortal, and didst add the promise of a resurrection ; who didst not suffer Enoch and Elias to taste of death, the God of Abra- ham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, who art their God, not as of dead but of living per- sons ; for the souls of all men live with Thee, and the spirits of the righteous are in Thy hand, and no torment can touch them, for they are all sanctified under Thy hand, do Thou now also look upon this The Witness of Ancient Liturgies, 271 Thy servant, whom Thou hast chosen and received into another state, and forgive him, if vokintarily or involuntarily he has sinned, and afford him merciful angels, and place him in the bosom of the patriarchs, and prophets, and apostles, and of all those that have pleased Thee from the beginning of the world, where there is no grief, sorrow, or lamentation, but the peaceable region of the godly, and the undisturbed land of the upright, and of those that see the glory of Thy Christ.
