the way these ideas are reduced to the daily round of conventional life

Social Sciences
History
Intellectual History
Not all Jews reached the levels of thought and feeling we have attempted to note, any more than all Athenians attained the levels of Plato and Aristotle. But out of their long experience the Jewish people did make an organized religion, a set of institutions, a way of life, and it was in this way of life that Christianity had its beginning. We must once more note that intellectual history is concerned, not only with the great achievements of the human mind, like the work of the Jewish prophets, but with the way these ideas are reduced to the daily round of conventional life.

这些思想融入到日常普通生活中的过程和方式
"The way" 在这里应该还有“过程”的意思吧，毕竟将思想化成生活中方式非一日之功

For me here \"reduced\"means 将阳春白雪的哲学思想化成下里巴人的生活方式.

how these ideas are brought down into the daily routine of everyday normal life
the daily round = the daily events of conventional life (课文内包有解释)
round = a set of events 一连串事件 eg We're hoping for a new round of talks with the government. 我们希望和政府进行新一轮会谈. Life seems to be a continual round of parties! 生活似乎就是一连串的聚会!
daily round = daily routine
'reduced to' ??? quite difficult to be sure -> suggest refer to English mono.
=
1 cheapen, make banal, debased, lowered (from the sublime to the everyday)
2 distilled, filtered down? expressed, pick and choose (in other words only a small part of the content comes down)
my initial feeling is 1, from the context

\'the daily round\' is an old set idiom, but my dictionaries are too modern to give it.
