Ezechiele 19:14
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.

142. Internal Meaning of Ezekiel, Chapter 19
1-2 The first thing of the church among the fathers of the Israelitish nation was destructive of all things of the church. (2)
3 That nation was likewise destroying all things of the church. (2, 16)
4-7 They were natural external, and opposed to all things of the church, and therefore they became perverted and were destroyed, (2)
8-9 and afterwards they were wholly destroyed by means of reasonings from the natural man. (2)
10-11 The Ancient Church was in Divine truths, (2)
12-14 but in the Israelitish and Jewish church all Divine truth was perverted and rejected. (2)
