Author Bio: Jakob Böhme German: bøm; 24 April 1575 – 17 November 1624 was a German philosopher Christian mystic and Lutheran Protestant theologian. He was considered an original thinker by many of his contemporaries within the Lutheran tradition and his first book commonly known as Aurora caused a great scandal. In contemporary English his name may be spelled Jacob Boehme retaining the older German spelling; in seventeenth-century England it was also spelled Behmen approximating the contemporary English pronunciation of the German Böhme. Böhme had a profound influence on later philosophical movements such as German idealism and German Romanticism. Hegel described Böhme as "the first German philosopher". Synopsis: THIS book of the Mysterium Magnum being an exposition of Genesis if it be read through and weighed with good attention will remove those mists from their eyes that have not diligently perused the other writings of the author Jacob Behm which hath occasioned their being offended by the stumbling blocks that have lain in their way from the misreports and relations of others who have but superficially looked upon them and taken up surmisings at the second or third hand and so come to be bereaved of the greatest benefit to their understandings which they would infallibly gain if they would follow the advice in the last paragraph of the last chapter of this book where the author says: We admonish the reader that when he finds somewhat in any place of our deep sense to be obscure that he do not condemn it according to the manner of the evil world; but diligently read and pray to God who will surely open the door of his heart so that he will apprehend it and be able to make use of it to the profit and salvation of his soul.
