72491Heaven and Hell — Translator's NoteEmanuel Swedenborg

Translator's Note

It might be inferred from the title of this work that it deals simply with the phenomena of the spiritual world and its three distinct regions. But it will be seen that in its deeper meaning and purpose it sets forth the true relations and the disordered relations between man and man, or the heavenly life and the infernal life as exhibited in human experience everywhere.

The same aims and methods have been followed in the translation of this work as were followed in the translation of the Divine Providence, and defined in the preface of that work.
