This version was compiled from electronic files of the
Standard Edition of the Works of Emanuel Swedenborg as
further edited by William Ross Woofenden. Pagination of
this PDF document does not match that of the
corresponding printed volumes, and any page references
within this text may not be accurate. However, most if not
all of the numerical references herein are not to page
numbers but to Swedenborg’s section numbers, which are
not affected by changes in pagination. If this work appears
both separately and as part of a larger volume file, its
pagination follows that of the larger volume in both cases.

POSTHUMOUS THEOLOGICAL WORKS
501
Editor’s Preface
This second volume of Swedenborg’s
Posthumous Theological Works,
along with volume 1, was first published in 1914. At that time John
Whitehead, the editor and translator of the two-volume set, called
attention in his preface to several situations that have since changed;
for instance that the full text of the marginal notes to Swedenborg’s
Schmidt’s Latin Bible (1696) was not available for use in his edition.
This latter omission was taken care of in another way in 1917 when
The Schmidius Marginalia together with the Expository Material of the
Index Biblicus
of Swedenborg, translated and edited by E. E.
Iungerich, was published by the Academy of the New Church.
In this present edition of volume 2, the several minor works that
Whitehead had appended to
Last Judgment
(Posthumous)
in volume 1,
as well as the extracts from Swedenborg’s correspondence and the brief
treatise on Gad and Asher, have been moved into this volume. This
was done in order to make the two volumes more nearly the same size,
as two of the extensive editorial word indexes, the brief bibliography of
Swedenborg’s works, and the index of Swedenborg’s works published
by the American Swedenborg Printing and Publishing Society
formerly found in volume 2 have been omitted, being neither accurate
nor any longer relevant to today’s reader.
The text for this edition was electronically scanned from the
Foundation’s Standard Edition. This process has allowed the book to
be completely redesigned and set in a new and more readable typeface.
Certain stylistic changes have also been introduced. These include
modernized spelling and punctuation as well as substituting new
words for terms whose meanings have become obscure or have
changed since the nineteenth century. Arabic numerals have replaced
roman numerals in Bible passages, and certain capitalized words
including pronouns referring to God have been lowercased to reflect
contemporary usage. All these changes have been carefully made in
order to make the book easier to read and use while preserving the
dignity and power of the original Latin. On the whole, however, the
Whitehead translation has not been materially altered.
