27 Fornisci pure la settimana di questa; e poi ti daremo ancora quest’altra, per lo servigio che tu farai in casa mia altri sett’anni.


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.

3879. 'She conceived again and bore a son' means spiritual conception and birth from what is external towards that which is more internal still. This is clear from what has been stated in 3860, 3868, where similar words occur.
