Arcana Coelestia 5

Revised

Arcana Colestia was the first and most comprehensive theological work published by Swedish visionary Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772). The body of this multivolume work is a verse-by-verse commentary on the inner spiritual meaning of Genesis and Exodus, but Swedenborg also includes descriptions of heaven and hell gleaned from his spiritual experiences. Volume 5 deals specifically with Genesis 28-31, interspersed with discussions of the Grand Man (also translated Universal Human), the heavens combined into a single human form.

This edition is a reprint, with revisions, of a 1905 translation by John Clowes, edited by John Faulkner Potts.
