This won't answer your question but I hope it helps you because your approach sounds too complicated to me, unless it is just for playing and learning. Why would you want to store each word in a record in a table? What if a word belongs to more than one paragraph?
How about hiding the “ugly” code on a to_simplified_json method in your Paragraph model?
@pepe: Yeah, one word could belong to many paragraphs but it was actually more for experimentation purposes. With Hibernate in Java one could use annotations like @Embedded to achieve something similar so I wanted to compare Hibernate and ActiveRecord but in reality, you're right, it is a bit too complicated (:
@Erol Yep, I guess I'll end up doing just that (: Just wondered if there is something neater to do.
Thank you, Martin

It does exactly what the docs say it does.
Best,
