In his lifetime, Swedish scientist and theologian Emanuel Swedenborg published more than seven thousand pages of commentary based on his communication with the spiritual world. A Compendium of the Theological Writings of Emanuel Swedenborg extracts key passages from this astounding body of work and groups them by subject for easy reference. Originally compiled in 1875 by Samuel M. Warren, this volume covers many facets of Swedenborg's philosophy--from the abstract nature of God, man, and the human soul to the everyday application of charity, free will, and spiritual regeneration; from the history and rites of the church to the wonders of the afterlife. A classic of Swedenborgian studies, it remains a vital research tool for scholars and seekers alike.

Includes Journal of the Massachusetts Association of the New Jerusalem Church.
