Un fiume di fuoco traeva, ed usciva dalla sua presenza; mille migliaia gli ministravano, e diecimila decine di migliaia stavano davanti a lui; il giudicio si tenne, e i libri furono aperti.
Daniel 7:10
To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.
Rivelazione 20:4
4
Poi vidi de’ troni, e sopra quelli si misero a sedere de’ personaggi, a’ quali fu dato il giudicio; vidi ancora le anime di coloro che erano stati decollati per la testimonianza di Gesù, e per la parola di Dio; e che non aveano adorata la bestia, nè la sua immagine; e non aveano preso il suo marchio in su le lor fronti, e in su la lor mano; e costoro tornarono in vita, e regnarono con Cristo que’ mille anni.

Apocalypse Revealed # 694
694. 16:10 Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl upon the throne of the beast. This symbolizes influx into the people's faith.
The angel's pouring out his bowl means, symbolically, here as before, influx, and the throne of the beast means, symbolically, where faith alone reigns. A throne symbolizes a kingdom or realm, and the beast faith alone (nos. 567, 576, 577, 594, 601, 660).
That a throne is also mentioned in connection with the reign of evil and falsity is apparent from the following:
The dragon gave (the beast) its power, its throne, and great authority. (Revelation 13:2)
I know your works, and where you dwell, where Satan's throne is. (Revelation 2:13)
I watched till thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of Days was seated. (Daniel 7:9)
I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and... the strength of the kingdoms of the nations. (Haggai 2:22)
(Lucifer said:) "I will exalt my throne above the stars... (Isaiah 14:13)
And elsewhere.
