""The Soul In The Unseen World: An Inquiry Into The Doctrine Of The Intermediate State"" is a book written by Reginald Ernest Hutton and published in 1902. The book explores the idea of the intermediate state, which is the belief that the soul of a person continues to exist in a state between death and the final judgment. Hutton delves into the history of the doctrine, tracing its origins in ancient Greek philosophy and its development in Christian theology. He examines the different interpretations of the intermediate state in various religious traditions, including Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The book also explores the implications of the doctrine for the concept of the afterlife, as well as for the understanding of the nature of the soul and its relationship to the body. Hutton considers various philosophical and theological arguments for and against the doctrine, and ultimately presents his own perspective on the matter.
