Description

Divine Love is a book by Emanuel Swedenborg, first published around 1762. In this compact theological treatise, Swedenborg presents an unfolding vision of God’s essential nature as love, treating divine love as the primal source from which all spiritual life and order emanate. He explores how love, in its purest form, acts as a creative and sustaining force, giving rise to wisdom, conscience, and the structure of existence itself. In Divine Love, Swedenborg writes from his experience of spiritual revelation, not merely speculation. The book has long been read by those interested in Christian mysticism, the theology of correspondences, or Swedenborg’s broader doctrine, since it lays a foundation for understanding how divine affection operates in the cosmos and in individual souls. While it is shorter and more focused than his larger works, it carries deep theological weight. For readers seeking spiritual insight into the nature of God’s love, the relationship between love and wisdom, or the roots of moral life, Divine Love remains a key piece in the Swedenborgian corpus. This translation by John Whitehead was first published in 1914.
