Genesi 2:10
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.
Divine Love and Wisdom #325
325. Since there is a human image to everything in the universe, Adam's wisdom and intelligence are described by the garden of Eden, where there were trees of every kind, as well as rivers, precious stones, and gold, along with the animals that he named. All of these meant things that were within him and that made him what we call "human."
Quite similar things are said of Assyria in Ezekiel 31:3-9, meaning the church as far as its intelligence is concerned, and about Tyre in Ezekiel 28:12, 23 [13], meaning the church in regard to its firsthand knowledge of what is good and true.
