ANALYSIS OF STOCKHOLM MSS.
a short time before his death, but did not finish it. In 1870 the
whole of this work was photo-lithographed in two folio volumes,
consisting of 1163 pages ; these two volumes constitute Vols. IX
and X of the photo-lithographed edition of Swedenborg’s MSS.
The Rev. E. Madeley states in the Appendix to Hindmarsh’s
"History of the Rise and Progress of the New Jerusalem Church,"
p. I, that "The MS. copy from which Mr. Hindmarsh printed his
edition of the Apocalypsis Explicata, was not Swedenborg’s, but a
copy made by Mr. Nordensköld." This, however, is a mistake ; for
Mr. Hindmarsh, as can be clearly proved, had the original codices 107
to 109 in his possession.
Respecting the position which the "Apocalypse Explained" occupies
among Swedenborg’s writings, see Document 313, no. 106.
"Codex 110.- Index to the Spiritual Diary."
This Codex is identical with Codex 63, which see for further par
ticulars.
"Codex 111.- Diarium Spirituale, i. e. Diarium Minus."
This Codex is identical with Codex 95 ; where further particulars
respecting it may be found.
"Codex 112.- Complete Index to the Arcana Cœlestia."
"Codex 113.-Index to the Earlier Volumes of the Arcana
Cœlestia, Vol. II."
The fate of these two Codices was unknown for a long time; the
history of their discovery is related in Document 309, L.
The following description of Codex 112 is given in Document 304,
Theological Writings, no. 7: "Vol. VI is also an extensive Index prob
ably to the author’s own collections, or to one of his works; but it was
either re-written by him, or used for some particular purpose, since
line after line is crossed out throughout the whole volume."
Codex 113 is Vol. II of an Index to the earlier volumes of the
Arcana Cœlestia. Vol. I is still missing.
The contents of Codices 112 and 113, as well as of the volume
which is still missing, were copied under the superintendence of
A. Nordensköld, and the copy was conveyed to England in 1783
by his brother C. F. Nordensköld. This copy seems to have passed
into the hands of J. A. Tulk, Esq. ,228 by purchase ; for it was published
by him in 1815 under the following title, Index Verborum, Nominum,
et Rerum in Arcanis Cælestibus.
