About this book

Jacob Boehme's Songs of Enlightenment unfolds the mystical heart of God's wisdom and love, hidden away for four hundred years in Jacob Boehme's Aurora, The Signature of All Things, and all of his works. Come and eat illuminated waybread for your soul. Here, drink pure wine to refresh and enkindle your weary spirit. There is no longer any need for you to remain famished on dry scholarly articles and sterile secondary sources about Boehme. Rather, in these 126 poems, created directly from his own texts, is unfolded the very beating heart of Jesus Christ in the shoemaker of Gorlitz, the Theologian of Fire.
