A fresh look at Emmanuel Swedenborg's The Worship and Love of God, his last work as a renowned physical scientist before fully embarking on his groundbreaking journey as a spiritual visionary. In this unfinished work, Swedenborg makes the connection between science and theology-and the inner workings of the human mind-laying the groundwork for a new kind of worship of the Lord, based on the startling revelations he received as a special dispensation from God. Beginning with the creation of the earth, Swedenborg describes the formation of plants, animals-and human beings-placing particular emphasis on the spiritual nature of Adam and his marriage to Eve. A Book Written for Angels provides a penetrating chapter-by-chapter examination of Swedenborg's unprecedented work and shares challenging insights that make this unique volume accessible to readers.
