Esodo 28:17
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.
Arcana Coelestia # 9899
9899. 'And the breastplate will not come away from upon the ephod' means that all things in heaven are inseparable from the outermost parts of the spiritual kingdom. This is clear from the meaning of 'not coming away from' as not being separated; from the meaning of 'the breastplate' as a representative sign of all things composing heaven, dealt with in 9879, 9887; and from the meaning of 'the ephod' as the whole outermost part of the spiritual kingdom, dealt with in 9824, 9896.
