Genesi 9:8
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 # 1070
1070. Verse 21. And he drank of the wine and was drunken; and he was uncovered in the midst of his tent. “And he drank of the wine” signifies that he desired to investigate the things which are of faith; “and was drunken” signifies that he thereby fell into errors; “and he was uncovered in the midst of his tent” signifies the consequent perverted things; the “midst of a tent” is the principal of faith.
