This version was compiled from electronic files of the
Standard Edition of the Works of Emanuel Swedenborg as
further edited by William Ross Woofenden. Pagination of
this PDF document does not match that of the
corresponding printed volumes, and any page references
within this text may not be accurate. However, most if not
all of the numerical references herein are not to page
numbers but to Swedenborg’s section numbers, which are
not affected by changes in pagination. If this work appears
both separately and as part of a larger volume file, its
pagination follows that of the larger volume in both cases.
This version has not been proofed against the original, and
occasional errors in conversion may remain. To purchase the

Editor’s Preface
This edition of Arcana Coelestia is based on the translation of J.
Clowes and his revisers, as further revised by J. F. Potts. The text
was electronically scanned from the Swedenborg Foundation’s
Standard Edition of 1911–1912. This process allowed the books to
be completely reset in a more readable typeface. It also allowed for
updating certain stylistic elements and for substituting
contemporary spellings. Arabic numbers have replaced the Roman
numerals, and some of the longer passages have been divided into
paragraphs for greater ease of reading. The Clowes/Potts
translation, however, has not been materially altered.
Volume 10 of Arcana Coelestia continues Swedenborg’s verse-by-
verse exposition, or commentary, of the biblical text of the book of
Exodus. As was the custom in his day, Swedenborg referred to the
Psalms as the book of David, and to the Pentateuch (Genesis,
Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy) as the books of
Moses. In this volume Swedenborg continues his practice of
inserting topical articles or "continuation" passages between each
chapter of the textual exegesis. The page number of the start of
each of these continuations is listed in the table of contents.
The reader may also wish to read the “Prefatory Notes by the
Reviser” in the front of Volume 1, as it contains further details
about the publishing history of this first and largest of
Swedenborg’s theological works. It also discloses a critical decision
made by Potts regarding his translating of the several words used by
Swedenborg to refer to “knowledge.” The reader needs to know
that this translation pattern was not followed by other translators of
Swedenborg.
As with previous printings, the bold numerals in brackets, [ 2 ],
[ 3 ], etc., indicate divisions of Swedenborg’s longer numbered
sections that were added for the convenience of the reader by J. F.
Potts in his six-volume Swedenborg Concordance (London:
Swedenborg Society, 1888–1902).
