Editor’s Preface
All of the theological works of Swedenborg from 1749 through
1766 were published anonymously. This work,
Conjugial Love,
is
the first to have the author’s name on the title page. At the back of
the volume he appended a list of “theological works hitherto
published by me.” This list has been omitted in most English
editions to date.
This present edition was first translated from the Latin by Samuel
Warren for the Rotch edition of Swedenborg’s works and
published as
Marriage Love.
Warren’s text was later revised by Louis
Tafel and published as
Conjugial Love
. The text of the
Warren/Tafel version was electronically scanned from the
Swedenborg Foundation’s Standard Edition. This 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 the substitution of 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 Warren/Tafel
translation has not been materially altered.
A word needs to be said about the translation of the Scripture
passages in this work, some of which Swedenborg translated from
biblical Hebrew and Greek, others of which he cited from Latin
bibles in his personal library. The reader will note that the archaic
language of the 1611 King James Bible, commonly called the
