Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 195 195. X. THAT THIS FORMATION BY THE WIFE IS EFFECTED BY THE CONJUNCTION OF HER WILL WITH THE INTERNAL WILL OF THE MAN. That with the man are rational wisdom and moral wisdom, and that the wife conjoins herself with those things with the man which pertain to his moral wisdom, has been shown above (nos. 163-65). All things pertaining to rational wisdom make his understanding, and all things pertainin... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=195 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 359 359. II. THAT THE BURNING OR FLAME OF THE LOVE, BEING ITS ZEAL, IS A SPIRITUAL BURNING OR FLAME ARISING FROM A MOLESTATION OF THE LOVE, AND AN ATTACK UPON IT. That zeal is a spiritual burning or flame is clear from what has been said above. In the spiritual world, love is heat arising from the sun there; therefore, at a distance love is there seen as a flame. Such is the appearance of heavenly lov... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=359 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 383 383. After him arose the second orator to reveal by elegance of speech the origin of beauty. He said: "I have heard that the origin of beauty is love, but I do not agree with that opinion. Who among men knows what love is? Who has contemplated it with any idea of thought? Who has seen it with his eye? Tell me where it is. I assert, on the other hand, that wisdom is the origin of beauty--in wo... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=383 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 293 293. To the above shall be adjoined two Memorable Relations. The first is this: Once when looking through a window towards the east, I saw seven women sitting on a bed of roses by a fountain, drinking water. I strained my sight to see what they were doing, and the intentness of my gaze affected them; whereupon, one of them by a nod invited me, and I left the house and quickly went to th... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=293 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 340 340. VII. THAT FOR THE ISRAELITISH NATION IT WAS PERMITTED TO MARRY MORE WIVES THAN ONE BECAUSE WITH THAT NATION THERE WAS NO CHRISTIAN CHURCH, AND HENCE NO POSSIBILITY OF LOVE TRULY CONJUGIAL.

II. THAT SCORTATORY LOVE IS THE OPPOSITE TO CONJUGIAL LOVE. There is nothing in the universe which has not its opposite; and opposites are not relative to each other but contrary. Relatives are things between the greatest and least of the same thing, While contraries lie over against them from the opposite side, being relatives with respect to each other just as are the former relatives; ther... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=425 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 415 415.

X. THAT THE SPHERE OF THE LUST OF FORNICATING, AS IT IS IN ITS BEGINNING, IS MEDIATE BETWEEN THE SPHERE OF SCORTATORY LOVE AND THE SPHERE OF CONJUGIAL LOVE, AND MAKES AN EQUILIBRIUM. These two spheres, that of scortatory love and that of conjugial love, were treated of in the preceding chapter, and it was shown that the sphere of scortatory love ascends from hell, and the sphere of conjugial... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=455 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 475 475. XI. THAT THOSE WHO ARE IN THIS CONCUBINAGE FROM CAUSES LEGITIMATE, JUST, AND REALLY WEIGHTY, MAY AT THE SAME TIME BE IN CONJUGIAL LOVE. It is said that they may at the same time be in conjugial love, the meaning being that they may retain this love stored up within themselves; for in the subject in whom that love is, it does not perish but is quiescent. The following are the reasons why conju... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=475 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 494 494.

THE IMPUTATION OF THE TWO LOVES, SCORTATORY AND CONJUGIAL The Lord says: Judge not, that ye be not condemned. Matt. 7:1. This can be understood in no wise as meaning judgment concerning a man's moral and civil life in the world, but as meaning judgment concerning his spiritual and celestial life. Who does not see that were it not lawful for a man to judge as to the mor... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=523 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 52 52. BRIEF ANALYSIS. This is testified by experience. How many are there at this day, who live according to the commandments of the Decalogue, and other precepts of the Lord, from religion? And how many are there at this day, who desire to look their own evils in the face, and to perform actual repentance, and thus enter upon the worship of the life? And who among those that cultivate piety,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=52 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 524 524. I. THAT AFTER DEATH THE EVIL IN WHICH ONE IS, IS IMPUTED TO HIM; LIKEWISE THE GOOD. That this may be seen in some clearness, it shall be illustrated under distinct heads, thus: 1. That every one has a life proper to himself. 2. That this his life remains with every one after death. 3. That to the evil man is then imputed the evil of his life, and to the good, the good of his life. ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=524 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 525 525. II. THAT THE TRANSCRIPTION OF THE GOOD OF ONE MAN INTO ANOTHER IS IMPOSSIBLE. The evidence of this also can be seen from the following heads in this order: 1. That every man is born in evil. 2. That by regeneration he is led into good by the Lord. 3. That this is done by a life according to His commandments. 4. Therefore good when thus implanted cannot be transcribed. FIRST: That every man is... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=525 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 113 113. To the above shall be added the following observations. It is said in the church, that no one can fulfill the law, especially since whosoever offends against one commandment of the Decalogue, offends against all. This form of speaking, however, is not such as it sounds; for this is to be understood in this manner, that whosoever from purpose or from confirmation acts against one commandment,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=113 A Brief Exposition of the Teachings for the New Church Meant by the New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation 46 46. BRIEF ANALYSIS. What nation is there in the whole world, which has religion and sound reason, that does not know and believe, that there is one God, and that to do evils is contrary to Him, and that to do goods is with Him, and that man must do this from his soul, from his heart, and from his strength, although they inflow from God, and that herein religion consists? Who therefore does n... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=be§ion=46 True Christian Religion: Containing the Whole Theology of the New Church Predicted by the Lord in Daniel 7:13-14 and Revelation 21:1-2 96 96.

IX. The spiritual clothes itself with the natural, as a man clothes himself with a garment. It is known that in every operation there is an active and a passive; and that from the active alone nothing exists, and nothing from the passive alone. It is the same with the spiritual and the natural; the spiritual, because it is a living force, is active, and the natural,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=isb§ion=11 True Christian Religion: Containing the Whole Theology of the New Church Predicted by the Lord in Daniel 7:13-14 and Revelation 21:1-2 34 34. That the infinite Divine is in men as in its images is evident from the Word, where we read: And God said, Let us make man in Our image, after Our likeness. So God created man into His own image, into the image of God created He him (Gen. 1:26, 27).
