PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION
lit
SEARLE'S Index, as the General Index to Swedenborg's Scripture
Quotations, published by the Rev. A. H. Searle, has come to be
known, has proved a useful compilation, especially to the New
Church, during the last 70 years, and a second edition is now called
for.
This new and corrected edition remains substantially Searle's
Index, but paragraph sub-division numbers as introduced by
the Rev. J. F. Potts, B.A., into his Swedenborg Concordance and
incorporated into subsequent edition of the Writings, have now
been included.
Another departure from Mr. Searle's practice is the removal
of the double references to the verse numbers of the Word which
occur in certain portions of the Index where Swedenborg's
enumeration differed from that of the Authorised Version. In
this edition, the Authorised Version notation alone has been
First Edition 1883 11 retained throughout.
All those who have collaborated in the preparation of this new
edition of the Index earnestly hope that its usefulness has been

PREFACE
11 IN compiling this Index to Swedenborg's Scripture Quotations,
we have based ourselves on the Index General by Le Boys des
Guays, published at Saint-Amand in 1859. We have, however,
excluded from our Index the references to the Adversaria, because
that work belongs altogether to Swedenborg's preparatory stage.
For the same reason we have thought it unnecessary to include
references to the explanations contained in the Index Biblicus,
which work has become accessible only since the appearance of
M. des Guays' Index. We have also omitted the variousletters
which were affixed to the numbers in Le Boys des Guays' Index
to indicate the fullness or brevity of Swedenborg's citations and
explanations; contenting ourselves with printing those numbers
which contain a quotation of the words of the text in blacker
type than those which contain mere references to chapter and
verse.
On the other hand, we have added references to several small
treatises and letters not included in M. des Guays' Index. We
hav.e also indicated the various works by the initials of their
English titles, except in the case of those which have not as yet
been translated ;-these we have designated by their Latin titles.
And when the same text is cited in several works, we have indexed
the citations in the chronological order of the works in which
they occur.
Another feature of this Index consists in the introduction of
references to the explanations of each verse in Genesis and
Exodus in the Arcana Caelestia, and of the Apocalypse in the
Apocalypse Revealed and the Apocalypse Explained; these serial
citations we have indexed under their respective verses before
the references from the other Writings.
In the absence of any uniformly adopted subdivision of the
long numbers in the Apocalypse Explained, we have considered
it useful to add references to the pages of the photolithographic
edition*-the fundamental edition-of that work.
The division of chapters and verses in the text of the Bible has
presented some difficulty. For Swedenborg quoted now from
one edition of the Bible and now from another, giving the numbers
of chapters and verses just as they stood in whichever edition he
happened to quote from at the time.
The confusion thence resulting we have done away with by
verifying and where necessary correcting every citation in accord
ance with a uniform standard of notation :-this standard, for
all the books of the Old Testament except Genesis and Exodus,
* See Preface to Second Edition.

is the notation in the Latin column of Schmidt's Hebrew-Latin TABLE OF THE BOOKS OF THE DIVINE WORD
Bible published in l740-the edition most frequently used by
Swedenborg, and for the books of the New Testament the (OLD TESTAMENT)
notation in his Latin Bible published in 1696. PAGES PAGES
In his own translation, however, of Genesis and Exodus in Genesis 1 Ezekiel 1]7
the Arcana Caelestia, Swedenborg seems to have adopted a Exodus 20 Daniel 198
numbering of verses peculiar to himself, for it differs in several Leviticus 35 Hosea 203
instances from the notation in every other version with which Numbers 44 Joel . 208
we have compared it : we have therefore corrected every citation Deuteronomy 53 Amos 210
of these two books in accordance with Swedenborg's own Joshua 63 Obadiah 213
numbering. Judges 67 Jonah 213
In every case, however, where the notation employed in the I Samuel 70 Micah 214
Authorized English Version of the Bible differs from that of II Samuel 74 Nahum 216
our adopted standard, we have noted the difference by placing I Kings 77 Habakkuk. 217
