Genesi 19:33
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 #2452
2452. And the growth of the ground. That this signifies all that is of the church, is evident from the signification of the “growth” (by which is meant both the crops and also every green thing, and that goods and truths are signified by these, is evident from the Word throughout); and also from the signification of the “ground,” as being the church (see n. 566, 1068). That goods and truths are everything of the church, is well known.
