Esodo 30:15
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 # 10304
10304. 'And put some of it before the Testimony in the tent of meeting' means worship of the Lord in heaven and in the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'the incense', which was to be put before the Testimony, as worship, dealt with above in 10298; from the meaning of 'the Testimony' as the Lord in respect of Divine Truth, dealt with in 9503; and from the representation of 'the tent of meeting' as heaven, dealt with in 9457, 9481, 9485. And since heaven is meant, so is the Church; for the Church is heaven on earth.
