Arcana Coelestia, also known as Heavenly Mysteries Contained in the Sacred Scriptures or Word of the Lord, is a voluminous work by Emanuel Swedenborg. This book is the tenth volume of the series and contains a comprehensive interpretation of the spiritual meaning of the biblical text. Swedenborg believed that the Bible contained a hidden spiritual meaning, and he spent years studying and interpreting it. In Arcana Coelestia, he presents his insights on the first five books of the Bible, Genesis through Deuteronomy. The book is divided into chapters, with each chapter focusing on a particular passage or theme in the biblical text. Swedenborg's interpretations are based on his understanding of the correspondences between the natural and spiritual worlds. He believed that everything in the natural world had a spiritual counterpart, and that the Bible was written in a symbolic language that revealed these correspondences. Throughout the book, Swedenborg discusses a wide range of topics, including the creation of the world, the nature of God, the meaning of the Ten Commandments, and the symbolism of various biblical characters and events. He also explores the role of angels and demons in the spiritual realm, and how they interact with human beings. Overall, Arcana Coelestia is a complex and thought-provoking work that offers a unique perspective on the Bible and the spiritual world. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Swedenborgian theology or the deeper meaning of the biblical text.1864. Part Ten of Twelve. Swedenborg, a noted Swedish scientist, philosopher and theologian, best known for his later writings, in which he presents ideas both Christian and ecumenical, for a new spiritual era or new church to be known as the New Jerusalem. The Arcana Coelestia is Swedenborg's crowning achievement. In Arcana Coelestia Swedenborg first introduces the concept of correspondences-a living, spiritual meaning within Scripture. He then proceeds to offer a verse by verse spiritual interpretation of the books of Genesis and Exodus. Along the way, he explains the spiritual meaning of many parallel passages throughout the rest of the Bible. Recommended reading for any serious student of the Bible.
