prune itioxs of e. claxtox & co. " I am very glad to learn that the demand for the ' Swedenborg Library ' still "increases. 1 feel sure it will be the means of bringing spiritual quickening, light and support to many a waiting and watching soul." " The plan you have adopted of presenting Swedenborg to the Amer- ican public iii this neat and attractive form, strikes me as admirable. It possesses advantages over every other method thus far adopted." Opinions of the Press. " Swedenborgians are endeavoring to bring Swedenborg's voluminous writings within the scope of popular comprehension; and among the means to this end that have come to our notice, the ' Swedenborg Li- brary ' is the best adapted to the purpose." — Philadelphia Inquirer. " It is one of the most useful works which has lately shown itself in the Church. For this reason we recommend it with our whole heart. . . . The choice of extracts is exquisite, admirable, and of the greatest importance and use even to well instructed members of the New Church."— Bute der Xeuen Kirche — Edited by Rev. A. O. Brickman. " We rejoice at the presentation of Swedenborg's ideas in this pop- ular form, where they will doubtless reach many new readers. For, with all its fkncifulness, Swedeuborgianisui can hardly help doing a good work in leavening and vastly improving the lump of religious doctrine." — Liberal Christian. " The work is interesting, not only to churchmen, but to all who desire to be well informed on the religions of the day." — Kokomo Diepatch. " With the issue of this pretty volume [VIII.], the ' Swedenborg Library ' is two-thirds complete. The extracts from Swedenborg are grouped in this, as in the previous volumes, with great care; and, although it may seem impossible that these great subjects can be ad- equately treated in so small a volume, a perusal will show that the essential doctrine is all here. Managers of New Church libraries will find the volumes of this series especially useful to persons just becoming interested." — Xew Jerusalem Magazine. " Here is a little book [Vol. VII., S. Library] within the reach of all, that will enable every earnest inquirer to see something of the light and love which God wants all to have and live." — Mount Joy Herald. " Swedenborg's writings wield a constantly growing power. . . . Men of little leisure have reason to be thankful to Mr. Barrett for the work he baa done and the labor he has saved them. . . . We can heartily commend this little book to any who may desire a general notion of the theological views of one of the most remarkable men that ever lived."— Cincinnati Timet. 5
