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.
This version has not been proofed against the original, and

A corollary (158–162)
The Divine trinity (163–188)
The Sacred Scripture or Word of the Lord (189–282)
1. The Sacred Scripture or the Word is Divine truth itself
(189–192)
2. In the Word there is a spiritual sense hitherto unknown
(193–209)
3. The sense of the letter of the Word is the basis,
container, and support of its spiritual and celestial
sense (210–213)
4. In the sense of the letter of the Word, Divine truth is in
its fullness, its holiness, and its power (214–224)
5. The doctrine of the church should be drawn from the
sense of the letter of the Word, and confirmed thereby
(225–233)
6. By means of the sense of the letter of the Word, there is
conjunction with the Lord and affiliation with the
angels (234–239)
7. The Word is in all the heavens and angelic wisdom is
from it (240–242)
8. The church is from the Word, and with man it is such
as his understanding of the Word is (243–247)
9. In every particular of the Word there is a marriage of the
Lord and the church, and in consequence a marriage
of good and truth (248–253)
10. Heresies may be drawn from the sense of the letter of
the Word, but to confirm them is hurtful (254–260)
11. The Lord when in the world fulfilled all things of the
Word, and thereby became the Word, that is, a Divine
truth even in things last (261–263)
12. Before the Word that is now in the world there was a
Word that was lost (264–266)
13. That through the Word there is light also to those who
are outside of the church and do not possess the Word
(267–272).
14. If there were no Word there would be no knowledge of
God, of heaven and hell, or of a life after death, still
less of the Lord (273–281)
The catechism or Decalogue explained in its external and its
internal sense (282–335)
In the Israelitish church the Decalogue was holiness itself
(283–286)
In the sense of the letter the Decalogue contains the
general precepts of doctrine and life, but in the
spiritual and celestial senses it contains all precepts
universally (287–290)
The first commandment: “There shall be [with thee] no
other god in my presence” (291–296)
The second commandment: “Thou shalt not take the
name of Jehovah thy God in vain; for Jehovah will not
hold him guiltless that hath taken His name in vain”
(297–300)
The third commandment: “Remember the Sabbath day to
keep it holy; six days shalt thou labor and do all thy
work; but the seventh day is the Sabbath of Jehovah
thy God” (301–304)
The fourth commandment: “Honor thy father and thy
mother; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it
may be well with thee upon the earth” (303–308)
The fifth commandment: “Thou shalt not kill” (309–312)
