Swedenborg and Modern Biblical Criticism (1870)

Swedenborg and Modern Biblical Criticism is a book written by Edwin Gould in 1870. The book explores the relationship between the teachings of Emanuel Swedenborg, a Swedish theologian and philosopher, and modern biblical criticism. Gould argues that Swedenborg's ideas about the spiritual meaning of the Bible are compatible with the methods of modern biblical scholarship, and that his insights can contribute to a deeper understanding of the text. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which examines a different aspect of Swedenborg's theology and its relationship to biblical criticism. Topics covered include Swedenborg's views on the nature of God, the role of the Bible in spiritual life, and the interpretation of biblical prophecy. The book is written in a scholarly style and includes extensive footnotes and references to other works on Swedenborg and biblical criticism. Overall, Swedenborg and Modern Biblical Criticism is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of theology and biblical scholarship.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
