Secrets of Heaven Volume 11

Secrets of Heaven Volume 11: Portable New Century Edition continues Emanuel Swedenborg's spiritual exploration of the book of Exodus (chapters 9-15), bringing forward the inner meaning of Scripture hidden beneath the surface story. In this volume, Swedenborg examines the story of the Israelites' deliverance from Egypt, the confrontation between Moses and Pharaoh, and the unfolding journey toward freedom. With its clear translation and modernized English, each passage reveals the spiritual symbolism of the biblical text, showing how events like the plagues of Egypt and the parting of the sea reflect the struggles of the human spirit--the tension between good and evil, the search for faith and truth, and the guidance of divine love and wisdom.

For readers of the New Century Edition series, this volume is designed for both personal study and spiritual reflection. Compact in size yet rich in insight, it invites seekers to engage with the Bible in a new way, uncovering its living message about heaven, hell, and the spiritual journey that connects us to the divine.

(It pairs well with Secrets of Heaven Volume 10, which together with Volume 11 cover the events of the children of Israel in Egypt.)

In Swedenborg's original Arcana Coelestia, written in neo-Latin, he published a single volume covering Exodus chapters 1-15. The New Century Edition divides that material into Volumes 10 and 11, which together correspond to Swedenborg's original Volume 6. Together volumes 10 and 11 explore the events of the children of Israel in Egypt.
