Swedenborg, Emanuel, 1688-1772

"Heaven and its Wonders and Hell"


{Footnote 1} There are few in Christendom at this day who
believe that man rises again immediately after death (preface
to Genesis, chap. 16 and n. 4622, 10758); but it is believed
that he will rise again at the time of the final judgment, when
the visible world will perish (n. 10595). The reason of this
belief (n. 10595, 10758). Nevertheless man does rise again
immediately after death, and then he is a man in all respects,
and in every least respect (n. 4527, 5006, 5078, 8939, 8991,
10594, 10758). The soul that lives after death is the spirit of
man, which in man is the man himself, and in the other life is
in a complete human form (n. 322, 1880, 1881, 3633, 4622, 4735,
5883, 6054, 6605, 6626, 7021, 10594); from experience (n. 4527,
5006, 8939); from the Word (n. 10597). What is meant by the
dead seen in the holy city (Matt. 27:53) explained (n. 9229).
In what manner man is raised from the dead, from experience (n.
168-189). His state after his resurrection (n. 317-319, 2119,
5079, 10596). False opinions about the soul and its
resurrection (n. 444, 445, 4527, 4622, 4658).

313. Very many of the learned from the Christian world are astonished
when they find themselves after death in a body, in garments, and in
houses, as in the world.
