Synopsis

Or An Exposition of the First Book of Moses Called Genesis. Edited by John Sparrow. Concerning the Manifestation or Revelation of the Divine Word through the Three Principles of the Divine Essence; also of the Original of the World and the Creation. Wherein the Kingdom of Nature, and the Kingdom of Grace, are Expounded. For the better understanding of the Old and New Testament, and what Adam and Christ are, also How Man should consider and may know himself in the Light of Nature, what he is, and wherein his Temporal, and Eternal Life, Consist; also, wherein his Eternal Blessedness, and Damnation Consist. And is an Exposition of the Essence of all Essences for the further Consideration of the Lovers, in the Divine Gift. Comprised in Three Parts. Since then the great Mysteries, the beginning of and original of all things, do befall us by divine grace; that we are able to understand the same in real knowledge, with the inspired word of the divine science, we will write down its ground in this book: I. We will signify and declare what the centre and ground of all essences is. II. What the divine manifestation is. III. How evil and good have their original from one only ground. IV. How all things have their ground from the Grand Mystery. V. How the eternal One introduceth itself into sensation, perception, and severation, to the science of itself, and the play of the divine power. VI. How man may attain to the true knowledge of God, and to the knowledge of the eternal and temporal nature. VII. Also how man may come unto the real contemplation of the Being of all beings. VIII. Also of the creation of the world and of all creatures. IX. And then of the original, fall, and restoration of man; what he is according to the first Adamical man in the kingdom of nature: and what he is in the new regeneration in the kingdom of grace, and how the new birth comes to pass. X. Also what the Old and New Testaments are, each in its understanding. And we will enlarge this exposition through all the chapters of the first Book of Moses; and signify how the Old Testament is a figure of the New.
