Conjugial Love, published in Amsterdam in 1768 under Swedenborg's own name — the first theological work he signed — teaches that marriage between one man and one woman is the fundamental form of heavenly love, that partners who are truly one continue as married partners after death, and that those who did not find their partner on earth are given one. It is the work most New Church people love and the one the church has most trouble with, because its second part treats disordered love at length and sets out, in sections often numbered 444 to 476, circumstances in which a man separated from his wife may take a concubine without committing adultery. The General Church and the Swedenborgian Church of North America have handled this differently and both have argued about it publicly. The same volume, and the broader body of the Writings, has also required the church to confront Swedenborg's eighteenth-century assumptions about the relation of husband and wife, which shaped the General Church's long exclusion of women from the priesthood.
