Esodo 11:3
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 #7837
7837. 'A perfect member' means spotless innocence. This is clear from the meaning of 'a member of the flock' as innocence, dealt with above in 7832; and from the meaning of 'perfect' as without blemishes, and so spotless. The reason why it had to be without blemishes and spotless was that any blemish means in the spiritual world some falsity or evil.
