Composed between 1790 and 1793, the book makes reference to Milton and Swedenborg, and adopts a device from Dante's Divine Comedy and Milton's Paradise Lost: a visit to hell. Blake expresses a deliberately depolarized and unified vision of the cosmos in which the material world and physical desire are both part of the divine order.

In this biblical, theological, and contextual study of prayer, Dr. Mireya Álvarez argues that Latino Pentecostals practice prayer as a way to enter into the presence of God. In the Latino community, the manifestations of the Holy Spirit are experienced in spontaneous prayers, joyful singing, speaking in tongues, and in an openness to unplanned liturgical movement.
