Publisher's Synopsis
The Delights of Wisdom Pertaining to Conjugial Love is a book written by the Swedish philosopher and theologian Emanuel Swedenborg. The book explores the concept of conjugial love, which refers to the love between a married couple that is based on mutual respect, trust, and spiritual connection. Swedenborg argues that this type of love is essential for a happy and fulfilling marriage, and that it is a reflection of the divine love that exists between God and humanity. The book is divided into two parts. The first part discusses the spiritual principles underlying conjugial love, including the nature of the soul, the role of free will, and the importance of spiritual regeneration. The second part examines the practical aspects of married life, such as the duties and responsibilities of husbands and wives, the importance of fidelity and chastity, and the role of sex in a healthy marriage. Throughout the book, Swedenborg draws on his extensive knowledge of the Bible and other religious texts, as well as his own mystical experiences, to provide insights into the nature of love and marriage. He also discusses the challenges that couples may face in their relationships, and offers advice on how to overcome these obstacles and strengthen their bond. Overall, The Delights of Wisdom Pertaining to Conjugial Love is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the spiritual and practical aspects of love and marriage. It offers guidance and inspiration for couples seeking to deepen their connection and build a lasting relationship based on love, respect, and spiritual growth.After observing these things, the angel led his companions through various winding paths, till he brought them at length to a most beautiful grove of roses, surrounded by olive, orange, and citron trees. Here they found many persons sitting in a disconsolate posture, with their heads reclined on their hands, and exhibiting all the signs of sorrow and discontent. The companions of the angel accosted them, and inquired into the cause of their grief.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
