Nemesis Devina by Linné.
The Divine Justice

Carl von Linné (1707-1778)

Most people only know Linné as the great father of botany.

But in his long life of searching the secrets of nature he finally came the conclusion that there is also a Law of Heavenly Justice ruling all human life.

Linnés background was very religious.

"Having priests in his lineage both on the fathers and the mothers side, grown up in a lonely parriage in southeastern Sweden, Linné has already from childhood with his thoughts lived into the stories from the Bible, especially Old Testaments thought as well as its spirit and letter."

Linné is the one of all great writers of that century, who thinks Biblical, feels Biblical and writes Biblical.

...especially in his Nemesis Divina.

His book was probably never meant for the public, but written especially for his only sons personal reading.

In the book Linné has made a long collection of the faith of many people he met and heard of, where he clearly can see a pattern of a Divine law of indemnity (Nemesis Divina), which punishes misdoings between people, in their own life or the life of descendants.
