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 2 deals specifically with Genesis 10-17, interspersed with Swedenborg's writings about the spirituality of the most ancient people on earth; the structure of heaven; the lives of angels; holy scripture; visions and dreams; and the Last Judgment.This edition is a reprint, with revisions, of a 1905 translation by John Clowes, edited by John Faulkner Potts.
