DE CONVERSIONE GENTIUM, QUAE SUNT "NINIVE:"
Jonas 1:1-3; Quod mandati illi qui e gente Judaica, ut docerent gentes circumcirca Verbum, sed quod nollent, et quod sic soli Verbum apud se custodirent. {11, 2}
Jonas 1:4-6; Quod cognitiones illis perire inciperent, et quod illi tam en secure vixerint. {2}
Jonas 1:7-9; Quod gentes perceperint, quod status Ecclesiae perverteretur apud se propter jacturam illarum apud Judaeos, et quod illi non vellent communicare aliis extra se. {11, 2}
Jonas 1:10-13; Quod rejicerent illa quae ex gente Judaica, quia falsificata, ut salvarentur. {11, 2}
Jonas 1:14-16; Quod orarent ad Dominum de salute, quae facta est illis, remotis falsis ex gente Judaica. {17}
This Latin text was written by Swedenborg in 1761. It was first printed 12 years after Swedenborg's death, in 1784. An 1860 printing was edited by Tafel, probably by the Swedenborg Society in London (swedenborg.org.uk). We're not sure of the provenance of this text, and are researching it further. We received most of this text from the NewSearch project of the Academy of the New Church (brynathyn.edu), and the front matter courtesy of the Heavenly Doctrines Publishing Foundation (heavenlydoctrinepublishing.org).
