What reading level is Was Christ Born At Bethlehem a Study On the Credibility of St Luke book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The question is how far any confidence can be placed in that other authority. Had he real knowledge at his command ?
The number seems so small as to be absurd. Josephust gives the population of Egypt, Alex- andria excepted, as 7, 500, 000. Adding 500, 000 as the population of Alexandria, we have the total Egyptian population, 8, 000, 000. But, according to Suidas, the population of the entire Roman world would not be much more than 21, 000, 000.
* Suidas, s. Vv. ' AiroypaQ)) and ^Bell. Jud. , i...i. , 16, 4.
THE SYRIAN ENROLMENT IN 8 B. C. 153 Probably the populous countries of Syria and Asia Minor alone contained more than 21, 000, 000 inhabitants, though we must remember that no slaves were counted in the enrolments.
The most probable supposition is that Suidas is giving an inaccurate account of the total of Roman citizens. A numbering of Roman citizens was three times made by Augustus 28 B. C. , 8 B. C. And 14 A. D. And the total was in each case between 4, 000, 000 and 5, 000, 000. The liability of numbers to corruption is exemplified in the result of Augustus's first census.
