What reading level is The Talmud book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"There is no hell in the future world, " says R. Simon ben Lakish. " But the Most Holy makes to shine His sun, whose splendor fills the righteous with happiness, and causes the wicked to suffer. " Thus the soul finds reward or punishment within itself. The student recognizes, to use the expression of the schools, the subjective character of the sanction attached to the moral law.
Such are the teachings transmitted by the Hag- THE TALMUD 53 gada, and spread among the people by popular preaching.... They were conveyed in a peculiar and rather original form well worthy of description. All of them were connected with the Bible, to which the Rabbis considered themselves obliged to trace the ideas they developed. It is the applica- tion to the Haggada of the method created by R. Akiba for the Halacha. The orator took a verse, which he commented on in a thousand ingenious ways, educing from it all sorts of moral lessons. It mattered little to him, if he did violence to the words, or abused a grammatical construction, or changed letters or words according to his caprice.
