Esodo 3:12
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 # 6888
6888. 'And this is My memorial from one generation to another means that It is to be worshipped perpetually. This is clear from the meaning of 'memorial' as that which should be called to mind, and - when used in connection with the Divine - as His essential nature called to mind in worship; and from the meaning of 'one generation to another as perpetually. In the Word the expressions 'forever' 1 and 'to all generations' 1 are used, sometimes in the same verse. The reason for this is that 'forever' has reference to Divine Good, and 'all generations' to Divine Truth. And the situation is much the same with the meaning of 'memorial' and 'name', in that 'memorial' has reference to the essential nature of the Divine in worship in respect of truth, whereas 'name' has reference to the essential nature of the Divine in worship in respect of them both, of both truth and good, but in particular in respect of good. The fact that 'memorial' means the essential nature of the Divine called to mind in worship is evident from Hosea,
Jehovah is God Zebaoth, Jehovah is His memorial. Turn back therefore in [the strength of] God; maintain godliness and righteousness. Hosea 11:5-6.
This refers to the essential nature of worship that is offered in respect of truth, and therefore the words 'Jehovah is His memorial' are used. In David,
Sing to Jehovah, O saints of His, and acclaim the memorial of His holiness. Psalms 30:4; 97:12.
'Holy' is used in reference to truth, see 6788; thus worship from truth is meant by 'the memorial of His holiness'.
