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.

2062. Sarai thy wife. That hereby is signified truth conjoined with good, is evident from the signification of “Sarai,” as being intellectual truth; and as “wife” is here added, the meaning is, this truth conjoined with good. (That “Sarai,” and “Sarai the wife,” signifies truth conjoined with good, has been shown before, n. 1468, 1901, and in several other places.)
