Daniel 9:3
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.

In Genesis 25:2, this signifies one of the general classes of the spiritual kingdom of the Lord in the heavens and on earth. With the exception of Midian, these are not mentioned by name elsewhere in the Word, but are sometimes referred to as Sons of the East from whom came the Wise Men. (Arcana Coelestia 3239)
