B, First Protestant Bible

Notes

The Italian First Protestant Bible, published in 1607, is a significant work in the history of religious texts. Translated by Giovanni Diodati, a Protestant theologian and scholar, this Bible aimed to provide Italian-speaking Protestants with an accurate and accessible version of the Scriptures. Diodati's translation was notable for its use of contemporary Italian language and its adherence to the original Hebrew and Greek texts. This edition played a crucial role in spreading Protestantism in Italy, offering a scholarly and doctrinally sound alternative to the Catholic versions of the Bible available at the time.
