Typed letter from N.D. Pendleton to Rev. Eldred Edward Iungerich in St. Cloud, Seine et Oise, France. Pendleton responds to Iungerich’s last letter with a theological discussion of the relationship between Swedenborg’s scientific works and the Writings; “As you know, many of us came more fully into the realization of the correlation between those works and the Writings, but as a rule we stopped short of the position which you hold . . . namely, that the Scientific Works are a Divine Revelation.” Pendleton then discusses the purpose of correspondences in the Word; “As to what you say concerning the ‘mystical correspondences (given) to hide interiors from view’ in the Old and New Testaments – my view has been that this ‘giving’ was not so much to ‘hide’ as to reveal. Of necessity, every revelation has been given in and by means of the knowledges of its day, and always with light sufficient to salvation. That which characterizes the Word of God in all forms and in every age is not that it was written according to correspondences, but because of the Divine sequence involved. It is therefore not enough to demonstrate that there is a correspondence between the Writings and the Scientific Works. This is clearly involved in that which has been shown to be their correlation. It must be made evident that there is a literal Divine sequence involved in the Scientific Works as written. Swedenborg claims this for the Old and New Testaments only – so far as I know.” Names mentioned: Dr. Acton, Emanuel Swedenborg
