ANALYSIS OF STOCKHOLM MSS.
In 1869 the editor of these Documents saw through the press a
photo-lithographic reproduction of the whole of Codex 11. It is
contained in Section II of Vol. VIII of the Photo-lithographed
MSS. of Swedenborg. In order to facilitate the reading of this
difficult codex, the editor published a second edition of this MS.,
which is to serve as a commentary to the first edition. In the
production of this commentary the editor caused to be removed from
the lithographic stone every indistinct and illegible word-especially
in the second, hitherto unpublished , part of the codex- and he
had it replaced by what he considers the genuine reading; so that,
under the guidance of this commentary, comparatively little difficulty
need be experienced by a careful Latin scholar in mastering the
contents of this MS.
"Codex 12.- De Ultimo Judicio."
This codex contains four distinct treatises , which , however, are
somewhat confused, partly by the fault of the binder, and partly by
the original arrangement of the MS. itself. These treatises are as
follows: 1. De Verbo, 2. De Ultimo Judicio, 3. De Mundo Spirituali,
4. De Præceptis Decalogi. Concerning the place of this codex in
the original catalogue of Swedenborg’s heirs, see Codex 11, no. 1.
1. The full title of the first treatise is ; De Scriptura Sacra seu
Verbo Domini, ab experientia. This was published by Dr. Im. Tafel,
in 1854, from the original MS. as Diarium Spirituale, Part VII,
Section or Appendix 2 ; after he had previously published, from a
copy prepared under the superintendence of A. Nordensköld, the
treatises De Ultimo Judicio and De Mundo Spirituali, on pp. 1 to
123 of the Diarium Spirituale, Part VII, Appendix 1 .
In 1869 the editor of these Documents had a photo-lithographic
copy taken of the whole of Codex 12, which constitutes Section IV
of Vol. VIII of the Photo-lithographed MSS. of Swedenborg. He
inverted the order, however, placing the treatise "De Verbo" first,
and those entitled, "De Ultimo Judicio" and "De Mundo Spirituali”
afterwards. For he discovered that nos. 1 to 19, which were published
by Dr. Im. Tafel in Appendix 2 of Part VII of the Diarium Spiri
tuale, by no means constitute the whole of the treatise De Verbo,
and that nos. 20 to 26 are found interspersed throughout the whole
of the treatise De Mundo Spirituali. No. 20, for instance, which
was not copied by A. Nordensköld’s copyist on account of having
a line drawn through it, may be found in Dr. Im. Tafel’s Collation
of A. Nordensköld’s copy with the original MS. , on pp. 74 and 75
of the Diarium Spirituale, Part VII, Appendix 2. No. 21 occurs on
p. 104 of Appendix I of the same work, beginning on line 2 from
