Keep reading. It's an interesting book but it won't hurt you.
I found what he wrote about "yokes" really interesting and discovered something that I'd never known before. And that is what a "yoke" is. It's "teaching" or "doctrine". Each rabbi had their own "yoke". Jesus - who was regarded as a Rabbi or Teacher said His yoke in comparison to the other rabbis (the Pharisees and others maybe?

) was easy.
Interesting, huh?
