Numeri 31:16
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.
Summer
In Genesis 8:22, this signifies, with winter, the state of the regenerate man in his new will, the alternations of which are like Summer and Winter. (Arcana Coelestia 930)
In Matthew 24:32, this signifies the full state of the church. (Divine Love and Wisdom 73)
