This volume delves into the period between c.1750 and c.1920, exploring how the Jerusalem code informed Scandinavian Christianity in a rapidly changing, increasingly globalized, and eventually, secularized world. Part 1 focuses on how millenarian ideas gave rise to new notions of Jerusalem, and influenced pietistic and separatist groups. Part 2 examines the different applications of Jerusalem within milieus closer to the national churches. Part 3 focuses on how the physical encounter with Jerusalem and the Holy Land created new knowledge, which both challenged and confirmed imaginaries stemming from readings of the Bible. Part 4 follows the trajectory of the Jerusalem code into the twentieth century, suggesting that despite processes of fragmentation and secularization, ideas of the Promised land or the New Jerusalem were channeled in new forms into the Scandinavian welfare states.
