Paracelsus of the Chymical Transmutation, Genealogy and Generation of Metals and Minerals: Also the Urim and Thummim of the Jews is a book written by the Swiss physician, philosopher, and alchemist, Paracelsus. Originally published in 1657, this work is a collection of Paracelsus' writings on the transmutation of metals and minerals, as well as his theories on the origins and properties of these substances. The book is divided into several sections, each addressing a different aspect of alchemy and metallurgy. In the first section, Paracelsus discusses the nature of metals and minerals, their properties, and how they can be transformed through alchemical processes. He also explores the relationship between alchemy and medicine, arguing that both disciplines are concerned with the transformation of matter. In the second section, Paracelsus delves into the genealogy and generation of metals and minerals, offering a detailed account of their origins and the processes by which they are formed. Finally, in the third section, he examines the Urim and Thummim, two objects used by the ancient Hebrews for divination and communication with God. Throughout the book, Paracelsus draws on his extensive knowledge of ancient texts and traditions, as well as his own experiences as an alchemist and physician, to offer a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the mysteries of alchemy and metallurgy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
