Synopsis

Explore a clear-eyed look at marriage, morality, and divine law through Swedenborg’s New Church lens. This pamphlet presents a thorough discussion of how purity, marriage love, and the duties of civil and spiritual life intersect, with cautions against judgment and emphasis on inner truth.

This edition frames the doctrine behind the book’s approach to marriage, divorce, and sexual ethics. It explains how the New Church views purity, the role of law, and the possibility of reform and salvation for those in evil, guided by the Lord’s commandments.


  • How spiritual life and inner motives shape judgments about behavior.

  • Why the book treats polygamy, divorce, and arousal of passion through a divine-law lens.

  • Imputation after death and how actions are weighed by the inner life rather than outward appearances.

  • The balance between civil law, rational judgment, and spiritual truth in matters of marriage.



Ideal for readers seeking a structured, doctrinal exploration of marriage ethics within the New Church tradition and its view of moral accountability and salvation.
