CONJUGIAL LOVE

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
