DIVINE LOVE & WISDOM: PORTABLE: THE PORTABLE NEW CENTURY EDITION (NW CENTURY EDITION) Available To Downloads
Divine Love and Wisdom has been called the most profound work of the Enlightenment scientist and seer Emanuel Swedenborg. It demonstrates how God’s love, wisdom, and humanity are reflected in creation and in ourselves, and suggests that the act of Creation is not a mystery of the past, but a miracle ongoing in every instant of the present. Like a blueprint of things unseen, Divine Love and Wisdom makes visible the hidden design of the universe, as well as the qualities of its Architect. Its vivid depiction of the spiritual mechanism of the world has impressed thinkers such as William Blake, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Henry James Sr.The New Century Edition of the Works of Emanuel Swedenborg is a modern-language, scholarly translation of Swedenborg’s theological works. The series’ easy-to-read style retains the dignity, variety, clarity, and gender-inclusive language of Swedenborg’s original Latin, bringing his thought to life. This portable edition contains the text of the New Century Edition translation, but not the introduction, annotations, or other supplementary materials found in the deluxe edition.

Orthodox religion established through defamation and murder by religious leaders has robbed us all of the richness that might have been. As such, the mindset established by intimidation of all those who created the present religious system has cast a shadow on spiritual revelation. Interpretation of spiritual experiences has always been a personal matter. Emanuel Swedenborg expounds on his, which are quite remarkable. In my opinion, reading this book will be helpful in your spiritual journey.
I was introduced to the writings of Emanuel Swedenborg in the early 70's. At the time I was new to college and was taking a class in "World Religion" and learned about Swedenborg during class. His writing was never presented to me as a stand alone religion but that his writings would help me to be a better Christian, Lutheran, or provide deeper perspective into any faith. The more I learned about his writing the more I was deeply touched by what he had to say. In the 70's Swedenborg's most essential writings were in very hard to read translations based on the original Latin writing styles of the 1800's. As a result it was very difficult to read and understand. Now we have new translations written for this century in the "Portable New Century Editions". These are excellent works written by extremely skill translators and even though the concepts have tremendous depth they are easy to understand. If you are interested in learning what the writings of Emanuel Swedenborg have to say about the bible, and gaining a deeper understanding I can recommend these translations with no reservation. In particular, I recommend the 'New Century Editions" of; "Heaven and Hell", "Divine Love and Wisdom", "Divine Providence", translated by George Dole. I also recommend "The True Christianity Vol. 1 and 2, translated by Jonathan Rose and "Secrets of Heaven Vol. 1 and 2, translated by Lisa Hyatt Cooper. I'm sure someone will ask me; "Well Steven, if you had to recommend only one of these books, which would it be?" Well they are all good but "Divine Love and Wisdom" is a great place to start. Highly recommended reading for the spiritual seeker.
Mr. Swedenborg was way ahead of his time and writes from experience no one else has had. If you want to know how things work with God, this is the book, along with Divine Providence and Heaven and Hell. If you want to know the highest perspective available from the world, these are the books to read and study.
The writings of Emmanuel Swedenborg have helped to change my life in more ways than I can imagine. I feel that God truly led my to Divine Love & Wisdom. Since reading this book I have collected and read many of Swedenborg's titles. I have grown so much in spirit. Anyone seeking a deeper knowledge and understanding of God and the bible owe it to themselves.
I have been studying religion and theology for nearly 20 years both as a hobby, a spiritual seeker, and a graduate student. I can say that "Divine Love and Wisdom" is without a doubt the most profound book I have ever read. If you want to understand the inner-workings of God then get this book and read it and Re-read it.
The New Century Edition is a very user friendly way of accessing the Heavenly Doctrines, and Divine Love and Wisdom is no exception.Easy to follow, easy to read, easy to learn from.A great read that really changed the way I think about life.
