Genesi 10:2
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 # 1223
1223. Verse 22 The sons of Shem: Elam, and Asshur, and Arpachshad, and Lud, and Aram.
Here, as previously, Shem means the internal Church. 'The sons of Shem' means the attributes of wisdom. 'Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram' were just so many nations who mean the attributes of wisdom -'Elam' means faith stemming from charity, 'Asshur' derivative reason, 'Arpachshad' derivative knowledge, 'Lud' cognitions of truth, and 'Aram' cognitions of good.
