9
Laonde altresì vi ho resi vili, ed abbietti appo tutto il popolo; siccome voi non osservate le mie vie, ed avete riguardo alla qualità delle persone spiegando la Legge.
Malachia 2:9
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.
Apocalypse Revealed #168
168. "'He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments.'" (3:5) This symbolically means that anyone who is reformed becomes spiritual.
To be shown that someone who overcomes means, symbolically, someone who is reformed, see no. 88 above. And to be shown that being clothed in white garments means, symbolically, to become spiritual through truths, see nos. 166, 167.
All those people become spiritual who possess truths and live according to them.
