الأسرار السماوية (Arcana Coelestia)

مقدمة

Swedenborg published the Arcana Coelestia anonymously in London in eight volumes between 1749 and 1756. It is a verse-by-verse commentary on Genesis and Exodus that unfolds an “internal sense” beneath the letter: the stories of creation, the flood and the patriarchs describe, through correspondences, the regeneration of the human being and the history of the church. Between the chapters he inserted accounts of what he said he had seen and heard in the world of spirits. Kant obtained the volumes and examined them in “Dreams of a Spirit-Seer” (1766), and the work became the foundation of the New Church, whose members still read it as revelation; for historians it is the main source for Swedenborg’s doctrine of correspondences.
