The Bible - Its True Character and Spiritual Meaning #245653

The object of these Lectures is to present the teaching of Swedenborg concerning the Sacred Scriptures, in a form likely to reach those who might otherwise remain in ignorance of it; and for this purpose I have used whatever in the collateral writings of the New Church I have found available for argument or illustration. Whatever has thus been assimilated into the scheme and purpose of this presentation, I of course make myself responsible for; but if credit is to be given, I wish to say it very likely belongs to others. It is only fair to add, that the Lectures, delivered from time to time, which have appeared in the Chicago Times, called forth expressions of interest from various sources, which suggested the probable usefulness of printing them in this present form.
