Inhaltsangabe

Last Judgment Continued is Emanuel Swedenborg's further account of the spiritual meaning and consequences of the Last Judgment. Written as part of his larger theological and visionary corpus, the work extends Swedenborg's distinctive interpretation of Christian eschatology, arguing that judgment is not merely a future public catastrophe, but a spiritual event involving the ordering of heaven, hell, the church, and the inner life of humanity. In Swedenborg's thought, the realities of scripture, doctrine, angelic order, and the unseen world are closely joined, and this brief but serious work belongs to that larger system of revelation and theological explanation. For readers of Swedenborgian theology, Christian mysticism, eschatology, visionary religious writing, and eighteenth-century spiritual thought, Last Judgment Continued offers a compact continuation of one of Swedenborg's central themes. It reflects his characteristic blend of biblical interpretation, spiritual cosmology, and reported insight into heaven and hell, making it a useful companion to The Last Judgment, Heaven and Hell, Divine Love and Wisdom, and his other works on the spiritual world and the nature of divine order.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Emanuel Swedenborg was a Swedish scientist, philosopher, theologian, and religious visionary whose writings became the foundation of Swedenborgian thought and the New Church tradition. Trained in mathematics, engineering, anatomy, and natural philosophy, Swedenborg later turned to theology and spiritual interpretation, producing a large body of works on scripture, heaven and hell, divine providence, spiritual worlds, angelic life, and the inner meaning of Christian doctrine. His books influenced religious thinkers, mystics, poets, philosophers, and reformers across Europe and America, and remain important to readers interested in Christian mysticism, visionary theology, esoteric Christianity, and eighteenth-century religious thought.
