Esodo第21章:20
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#9017
9017. Verses 16-17 And anyone stealing a man and selling him - and he is found in his hand - shall surely die. And anyone cursing his father and his mother shall surely die.
'And anyone stealing a man and selling him' means applying the truth of faith to evil, and alienating it. 'And he is found in his hand' means though there is still an acknowledgement of it. 'Shall surely die' means damnation. 'And anyone cursing his father and his mother' means complete rejection of the Lord and of His kingdom by those belonging to the Church, and so profanation of the Church's goodness and truth. 'Shall surely die' means damnation.
