THE purpose of this CONCORDANCE is to make the Theological W ritings of
Emanuel Swedenborg more accessible in an theil' fulness to every reader
and student of them, whether learned or unlearned.
.A t present no one can feel sure that he knows or can find everything that
is contained in the Writings on any given subject. And eyen when we are
sure of the existence of sorne passage that we desire to find, how often, having
none but the existing works of reference to aid us, are we overwhehned and
deterred from making an investigation by the dreary prospect of a search
through from forty to fifty volumes of compact matter! A reader's attention
may also be arrested by sorne statement which appears to be at variance with
OHe or more other statements he has met with elsewhere in the Writings.
Yet he has frequently no means of referring back; and even if he should find
the passage or passages he remembers to have read, the apparent discrepancy
lllay after all be explicable only by reference to another passage, which forms
the connecting link, but on which he cannot lay his hands, and of the very
existence of which he may indeed be ignorant.
The CONCORDANCE '1'0 SWEDENBORG now offered to the Church is the result
of between thirteen and fourteen years of labour, * and claims to be exhaustive
and complete. Every theological work of Swedenborg has been gone over
twice, word hy word. The works not published by Swedenborg hirnself, such
as the Apocalypse Explained, the Spiritual Diary, and the Adver'saria, as
well as the shorter treatises, have an been included within the scope of the
CONCORDANCE. So have the srnall treatises and fragments of a theological
nature of which Swedenborg was the author, and which have recently been
published in the work entitled Documents concerning Swedenborg, by Professor
R. L. Tafel, M.A.
A new translation has been made of the whole of the matter in the CON-
CORDANCE. Unity of style and system is thus rnaintained throughout. In
making this translation two principal objects have been kept steadily in view.
The first is reverent fidelity to the original. The second is the Queen's
English. In aU cases, however, the artieles in the CONCORDANCE have been
if. This period is exclusive of the time occupied in making a clean and revised copy, and in Beeing the Work
through the press, which will probably be abollt eight years more.

4. VI INTRODUCTION.
based upon the original Latin words, so that no changes in the translation
would affect the matter they contain. For example, aH passages containing
in the original the word coelestis have been arranged in regular and consecu­
tive order under one heading, whether that word in the passages placed under
that general head be translated celestial or heavenly. And so, on the other
hand, in cases where one English word has to do dutY for two or more Latin
ones, as in the case of the word man, the passages have been distributed
into two articles, Man-homo, and Man-viT, according to the occurrence
of the two Latin words in question. Therefore, while the CONCORDANCE is
aH in English, it is at the same time based upon the Latin of the original
Writings.
The passages of the Word quoted in the extracts consist strictly of
translations frorn the Latin of Swedenborg. The original Hebrew and Greek
of the Scriptures have IlOt been regarded, except to determine the precise
sense in which Swedenborg has used his Latin tenns. It has been considered
to be no part of the business of this W ork to fnrnish any translations of
passages from the W·ord, except those made by Swedenborg himself rendered
literally into English. The English Versions of the Scriptures have therefore
also been disregarded whenever they could not be used as a translation of the
Latin, but they have always been preferred to any other rende ring when, as a
translation of the Latin of Swedenborg, they were as good as any other. In
relation to passages quoted from the Word, as in relation to all the l'est of
the Writings, fidelity to the Latin Originals of Swedenborg has been the
paramount law of translation.
At the time when the CONCORDANCE was commenced, nearly the whole of
the translations of the Writings into English were too imperfect for use.
This rendered a new translation necessary. Since that time, however, a
number of excellent translations have appeared, sorne in America and others
in Great Britain; and in making the clean and revised copy for the press,
these new translations have been introduced, so far as could be done without
interfering with the unity of the Work.
Cross references are made use of whenever necessary. The reader, for
instance, who turns to the word Heavenly, will find there a reference to
Celestial.
In view of this system of cross references, it has been the constant aim to
give as great a variety as possible of good translations of the Latin words
which forrn the basis of the articles. A reader might think of one such
translation and not of another; but whichever he thought of, he would always
find either a reference or a cross refere~ce under that heading. Take such a
word as Inesca1'e. This word has been translated in various passages quoted
in the CONCORDANCE, addicted to, satu1'ated with, given up to, made habitual,

5. INTROD UCT.JON. vü
all of which are good translations in the places w here they are used. . The
reader, therefore, will find a reference under Addict to all the passages where
Inescare occurs in the original. But if he shouJd not happen to think of the
word addict, and instead there should occur to him any' one of the expressions,
saturated, given up to, or habitual, on turning to the particular expression he
thought of, he would find there a cross reference to Addict.
A complete V ocabulary and Index of all the Latin Vords that occur 111
the headings of the various articles will be given at the end of the Work.
The CONCORDANCE con tains nearly eight thousand articles arranged 111
the English alphabetical order, and ranging in length from a single line to
many pages.
In order to render the work of reference to the W ritings themselves easy
for the reader, it has been found necessary to sub-divide aIl the longer sections
of the original worles. Thishas been done on one uniform plan throughout.
The subdivisions have been made according to the sense, and have been
indicated by the figures 2, 3, 4, and so on, placed at the upper right hand
corner of the reference numerals. The reference is made thus, E. 7013°, which
means that the passage thus marked will be found in the Apocalypse Explained,
No. 701';-subdivision 30. No. 701 of the Apoc. Ex. fills thirteen octavo pages,
and reference to it without subdivision wou Id probably involve much weari­
SOIlle and vexatious searching. In order to make these subdivisions available
to all, it is intended to give a complete list of them at the end of the CON­
CORDANCE, so that those who wish to do so can copy them into their own
volumes. The Swedenborg Society has alreadyadopted the subdivisions in
the new translation of The Intercourse of the Soul and the Body, and it is
hoped that they will be gradually introduced into the new editions of the
vVritings.
Several of the posthumous works of Swedenborg have never been pub­
lished in English; as De Domino, De Athanasii Symbolo, De Ultimo Judicio,
De Verbo, De ConJugio. The paragraphs of these works were either not
numbered in a regular manne l', or were not numbered at ail, by Swedenborg;
nor were they numbered by Dr Immanuel Tafel in his editions. It was there­
fore necessary to number the paragraphs of these works for the sake of
reference in the CONCORDANCJ<;. It is hoped that all these important works
may soon be published in English, and that the numbering of the paragraphs
made for the CONCORDANCE may be introduced, bracketed, into them. The
Doctrine of Charity stands in a similar category. This W ork has indeed
been translated, in both America and England, but in both cases the para­
graphsrhave been numbered in an irregular manner, according to the judgment
of thè translators. These numberings, therefore, neither agree with the
actual paragraphs of the original, nor with each other. In these circumstances

6. viii INTRon VeTION.
it has seemed best to number this work on the same system as the other
unnum bered posthumous works; and, at the saIlle time, to furnish a Key
between aIl these numberings of the Doctrine of Charity, which will be found
at the end of each volume of the CONCORDANCE.
The arrangement of the passages under one headiug is consecutive,
beginning with the Arcana Cœlestia, and running in chronological order
through aIl the works quoted. As a general rule, each article in the CON­
CORDANCE is separated into two divisions, the first of which contains an
quotations from the works published by Swedenborg himself, and the second,
quotations from the works which have been published from the MSS. since
the decease of Swedenborg. Eaeh division is arranged in chronological order.
The article Swedenborg, however, for obvious reasons, is arrangeù in
absolute cbronological order throughout, without respect to the fact of the
quotations being from works that were published by Swedenborg himself, or
otherwise. The inducement has been great to arrange aU the articles in this
order; but the consideration of the importance of the fact that Swedenborg
did not himself publish certain of his works, has been held sufficient to
entitle the works which were pubJished by him to precedence of quotation in
aIl cases except the one just referred to.
Capital Letters have been used at the beginning of words to mark a
distinction in the sense. Thus, wh en the word 'Celestial' is used as a
substantive in the singular, it is always so distinguished. In this way, 'the
Celestial (principle)' is discriminated from 'the celestial (persons).' So with
aIl other Latin neuter adjectives used as substantives, except those of which
Ellglish equlyalents have already become naturalized in our vernacular. By
the use of a capital initial also, 'Heaven,' the abode of the Angels, is dis­
tinguished from 'heaven,' the sky; and 'Spirit,' a man after death, from
'spirit,' a man's mind. These two instances carry with them the correlatives
'HeIl,' and 'Angel,' and render it necessary, on the ground of consistency, ta
distinguish these also with initial capitals. Other instances of the saIlle kind
will be easily understood. It may be useful, however, to explain a few
instances of a different kind. When the word 'Own' stands for the Latin
word proprius, it is printed with a capital in order to indicate that facto A
very important case is that of the word 'Knowledge,' which, thus printed,
stands for cognitio; whereas, without the capital, it stands for scientia.
A similar instance to this is 'Gentiles,' which, with the capital, is the repre­
sentative of Gentiles; but without it, of gentes. 'Earth,' again, with the
capital, indicates teUus; without it, terra. FinaIly, to this class belongs
'Power,' which, when piinted with the capital, stands for potestas; but, when
printed without it, for potentia.
While this CONCOItDANCE claims to be complete, the fact must not be over·

7. INTRODUCTION. 1ll
looked that it is a selection. A Concordance to Swedenborg cannot be
anything more than that. In the first place, the words themselves have to
be selected. l t is evident that, in sucb a work, regular references to conjunc­
tions, prepositions, and pronouns would be worse than useless. Yet, in sorne
instances, references to even these classes of words are nseful and necessary.
While, for example, it would be absurd to refer regularly to the cOlljunction
'and,' there are still a few cases in which this word demands a reference; and
if the reader will turn to the article And, he will find there fi ve references
which could not have been omitted from the Work. Out of tens of thousands
of passages in which the word 'and' occurs, these five had to be selected.
This is an extreme case, but the same rule is of universal application. The
most important article in the CONCORllANCE is Lord; but even this word
cannot be referred to in every instance. 1'0 do that, and give the extraets,
would be to make the article Lord fin a volume; while to give the references
without the extracts, would be to produce whole pages of mere figures that
would be of no practical use ta anyone. Every passage, therefore, nay, every
word, has had to pass under judgment; and each reference or extract in the
'York has had to be considered indi vidually. This was inevitable, unless the
CONCORDANCE were to fill forty volumes instead of four. The disadvantage is,
that the CONCORDANCE, being the result of the judgment of one man,
cannot be expected to satisfy the judgment of every other man; but the
Compiler has always worked on this principle : to insert not only those references
which he hil1lself considered to be of consequence, but also ta in sert those which
he thought it possible for anyone else to consider of consequence. In doubtful
cases, the rule has been to give the reference. Still, with the most patient
eare, it cannot but be that in such a work many imperfections must exist.
Omissions are inevitable. l t is therefore intended to form an ApPENDIX of
any such omissions as may be discovered, and to print it at the end of the
fourth volume; and aIl friends of the W ork, who may notice anything of the
kind, are kindly requested to make note of the same, and to fonvard aIl their
notes to the Compiler in time for insertion in the Appendix.
While, however, it seems fair and necessary to say as much as this in
regard to the inevitable imperfection of the Work, an imperfection which is
a necessary characteristic of aIl human productions, it is by no means intended
to convey the impression that the CONCORDANCE is, after aIl, an incomplete and
unsatisfactory work of reference. The W ork aims at being really complete,
without being at the same time overloaded with matter which would be of no
practical use to anyone. 1'0 make perfectly clear what is meant by useless
matter, let us take the most familiar and best knowll passage in the W ritings :
'AIl religion has relation to life, and the life of religion is to do good.' This
passage contains twelve different words; but ont of these twelve, only four

8. INTRODUCTION.
are referred to in the CONCORDANCE. These are 'religion,' 'life,' and the words
'do good,' which are treated under one heading. The other eight words are
not referred to at aIl. It could serve no useful purpose to refer to the word
'aIl' in this passage; the word 'relation,' although in itself an important word,
does Ilot occur in the original, being an invention of the translators; and the
rernaining Vords in the passage are mere part.icles. In a Concordance to the
Word even particles ought to be referred to, because in that verbally inspired
Vork every jot and tittle are Divine. But that is not the case with the
Vritings. A mere mechanical construction of a Swedenborg Concordance
would therefore resultin the production of a work, which, from its very
inception, would be doomed to be superseded. Probably three quarters of it
would be absolutely useless, and would therefore, by their very presence,
tend to defeat the purpose of the Work.
The paramount consideration which confronts anyone who undertakes a
vVork like this, remains, therefore, precisel..,. that which ought to be the
paramount consideration in everything: the consideration of use. 'What use
can it be to insert this reference l' is the question which must be incessantly
asked. Use must be the judge and the jury. In sorne cases, however, it may
be of use to insert references which are intrinsically worthless, because they
may be useful to the linguists, the critics, the translators of the New Church.
In such cases, the word in question may occur only a very few times in aIl the
W ritings. l t is clear, therefore, that every one of these occurrences must be
faithfully recorded. Whereas, should a word of this order be of very frequent
occurrence, being in itself a word of no significance in relation to its sense or
meaning, it is sufficient to give a few specimens of its occurrence selected from
'arious parts of the W ritings.
Parallel with the consideration of use, and involved in it, is the consideration
of honesty. Any dereliction in this respect would be simply infamous. The
vVorks to which the CONCORDANCt<; is a humble handmaid are reaBy Works of
the Lord written through Swedenborg, as Swedenborg himself has said. Every
statement in them is therefore of the highest consequence, and no one ought
to be defrauded of access to it. No matter against whose opinions it may
militate, the statement must he faithfully recorded. Even should one state­
ment seem to contradict another, still, the dominant consideration must be
perfect honesty. There is no use apart from this. And the same rule must
apply also to those statements, so numerous in the 'Vritings, which are hkely
to give offence by their plain outspokenness upon subjects which are usually
avoided in works intended for general circulation. If it has pleased the Lord
to speak to us on these subjects, that is a sufficient reason for making refer­
ence to everything He has been pleased to say, or to cause to be said. In
.this CONCORDANCE therefore nothing has been shirked, of any kind; nothing

9. INTROD UCTION. Xl
has been intentionally kept back. In a few cases the quotations have been
made in the original Latin. but, either in the one language or the other, every­
thing has been recorded.
The words which are to be referred to having been selected, there still
remains ta be made the selection of the quotatio~s themselves. In a Con­
cordance to the Word the makincr of this selection is easy, because the
o
immediate context is aIl that is required. Very different, however, i8 the
case with a Swedenborg Concordance. In some instances the immediate con­
text is indeed aIl that is required, but this is far from being the general rule.
What is required is the immediate sense. Tt is the ideas, not the mere words,
which are of consequence. This is especially the ease with the longer articles.
As an example of this, take the article Angel, in which the word ' Angel' is
referred to 1916 times. But if t his article Vere constructed by means of an
accumulation of short quotations such as are given in a Biblical Concordance,
it would be of comparatively little use. The reader would have to refer to
the Original Works so frequently that the use of the CONCORDANCE in saving
time and labour would he to a great extent destroyed. It would take him
mauy days to go through this single article. If he were st,udying the subject
of the Angels, he would have to go through the Writings and make the
extracts which are already made for him in this CONCORDANCE; whereas, with
the help of the Work as it stands, he will be spared the impossible part of this
labour. The extracts are sufficiently long and complete to indicate to him the
nature of the statements in each case, and he will therefore only have to
supplement the materials thus placed reaùy to his hand, by actual reference
ta those portions of the "Vritings which he sees from the CONCOltDANCE to be
necessary for his purpose. This has been the consideration kept in view
during the making of the extracts. 1'0 quote aIl that would be useful, and no
more, has been the guiding principle.
As a general rule, the extracts thus made for the CONCORDANCE have been
gi ven in Swedenborg's own words, translated into English, and have not been
condensed by the use of any other words. In sorne places, labour and space
could indeed have been saved by condensation; but any ad vantage thus gained
wouId have been more than counterbalanced by the elements of uncertainty
and untrustworthiness which would necessarily have been introduced. Where,
however, the extract, if made in the very words of Swedenborg, would be
extremely long" and at the same time would be of very little use in relation to
the subject of the article, a brief description of what Swedenborg says has
been given, but aIl such matter has been enclosed within curved brackets,
The following is a complete list of the works of Swedenborg referred to
in the CONCORDANCE, including their Latin titles, and the dates of their com­
position. Reference to this list will enable the reader to place the extracts

given in the second division of the Concordance articles in their right position
relatively to those given in the first division.
1745. 'History of the Creation.' Historia Creationis a J1!Iose tradita.
The first treatise written by Swedenborg after the full opening of his spiritual
sight, which took place in the middle of April, 1745. This work has never
been translated, but it will ue found in the original Latin at the beginning
of the' Adversaria,' in which work it occupies the tirst twenty-five pages.
1745 and 1746. 'Adversaria.' Explicatio in Verbum Historicum Veteris
Testamenti. There are three MS. volumes of this work, in each of which the
paragraphs are numbered independently, that is to say, each volume commences
with the numeral 1. There are therefore three separate series of numbers in
the' Adversaria,' which have been indicated in the CONCORDANOE by the figures
l, 2, :-3, prefixed to the ordinary numerals.
1746 and 1747. 'Adversaria.' Es~jas et Je1'emias explicati. As this
work Vas printed by Dr lm. Tafel as' Adversaria, Part iv.,' it is distinguished
in the CmiooRDANOE by the figure 4 prefixed to the ordinary numerals.
Swedenborg did not num ber the paragraphs of this MS., but it is not very
frequently quoted in the CONOORDANOE, and the pages of the Latin edition
an:: therefore given in place of the usual paragraph numbers, in the l'lame way
as is done in the' Index Générai' of Le Boys des Guays.
114,7 to 1765. 'Spiritual Diary.' The title given by Swedenborg is
ilfemorabilia.
1747 to 1758. 'Arcana Coelestia.' Arcana Coelestia quae in Scriptura
Sacnt seu Ve1'bo Domini sunt, detecta.
1750 and 1751. 'Diarium Minus.' Not translated. This work is really a
portion of the' Spiritual Diary.' During Swedenborg's journey to Swedell in
1750, he seems to have kept the record of his spiritual experiences in a little
pocket volume which was pu blished by Dr lm. Tafe! under the naUle of ' Diariulll
Minus; , this little pocket volume he used until the close of N ovember, 1751. ,<
While using this little volume, Swedenborg suspended the use of the larger
one, and vhen he returned to it, he continued the numbering of the para­
graphs therein just as if he had never written the little vol ullle at aIl. The
consequence is that this little work has been crowded out of its right place.
It reaBy come3 in after No. 4544 of the' Spiritual Diary,' as is shown by the
fact that the little volume commences with the number 4545, and it is caHed
, Diarium Minus' merely because it happens to have been written in a smaBer
book than the l'est of the work.
1757 and 1758. 'Heaven and HeU.' De Coelo et ejus Mi1'abilib'LlS, et
de Inferno, ex auditis et visis.
1757 and 1758. 'On the White Hol'se.' De Equo Albo, de quo m

work printed in English under the title of 'The Athanasian Creed' is a mere
collection of extracts from the' Apocalypse Explained,' where it wiU aIl be

Explained,' it is of course referred to as such in the CONCORDANCE.

nUlllbered for the CONCORDANCE consecutively with the 'De Ultimo Judicio,'
in the same way as was done by Swedenborg with the 'Continuation concern­
ing- the Spiritual World,' which he published as a continuation of the work
entitled 'Continuation concerning the Last J udgment.'

lm. Tafel's 'Appendix,' and is also printed at the beginning of the new
American edition of the' Coronis.' In English, it constitutes Section iii. of
'The Consummation of the Age;' but it is not treated in the CONCOltDANCE as
a separate work from the 'Coronis' itself, being distinguished by Roman
numerals; thus, Coro. i, ii, iii, and so on.

l t is due to one of the most faithful and laborious workers in the New
Church to say that the completeness of the CONCORDANCE has been consider­
ably increased by means of the admirable Index Re1'um to the Apocalypsis
Explicata, recently issued by the American Swedenborg Printing and Publish.
ing Society, and the Compiler of which is Dr Samuel H. ,y orcester.
Many others have contributed either directly or indirectly to the perfection
of the Work, and among these it is impossible to pass over without special
l:lention the name of the Rev. Dr R. L. Tafel, to whom, in many ways, the
CON00RDANCE owes a heavy debt of gratitude. The late Mr Frederic Pitman
also, during the last few months of his life on earth, rendered invaluable
assistance in connection with the seeing of the W ork through the press.
Lastly, the C.ommittee of the Swedenborg Society, of London, have nobly
undertaken the publication, and have assisted and supported the 'York in
every possible way; while the General Con vention of the New J erusalem in
the United States of America have manifested the kind interest taken in th(
W ork in that country by appointing a Committee to give the most practical
aid in their power towards the successful completion of the CONCORDAN Cl:.
