Emanuel Swedenborg was a Swedish scientist, Christian mystic, philosopher, and theologian who wrote interpretations of the Scriptures as the immediate word of God. After his death, devoted followers created Swedenborgian societies dedicated to the study of his thought, which formed the nucleus of the Church of the New Jerusalem, or New Church, also called the Swedenborgians.
