Foreword By: Johnson, Gregory R. Length: 410 pages PaperBack "Written at a time of intense philosophical and theological debate on the nature of God's governance of the world, Swedenborg's Divine Providence is in many ways far more original and thought-provoking than anything produced by his contemporaries. George F. Dole's translation is extremely readable, and Gregory R. Johnson's authoritative introduction not only explains Swerdenborg's often difficult ideas, but places them in their historical context." ---Glenn A. Magee, Ph.D., author, Hegel and the Hermetic Divine Providence, a companion piece to Divine Love and Wisdom (0-87785-481-5), depicts God's caring for individuals and all of creation, enlisting humanity in a process of making free choices to create a heaven from the human race. In this important work, Swedenborg describes individual human freedom as inherent in creation, empowered by a God-given ability to understand and make wise choices. This paperback edition is identical to the text of the hardcover edition of New Century Edition, which also includes Divine Love and Wisdom (0-87785-480-7). It is complete with translator's preface by George F. Dole, introduction by Gregory R. Johnson, scholarly notes, table of parallel passages, index of Scripture references, and and index to the translation. SKU: Price: $0.00 Send this page to a friend! Quantity:
