Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Marriage With a Deceased Wife´s Sister: Prohibited by Holy Scripture, as Understood for the Church for 1500 Years, Evidence, Given Before the Commission Appointed to Inquire Into the State and Operation of the Law of Marriage, as Relating to the Prohibited Degrees of Affinity The object of the writer in delivering the evidence which he was requested to give before Her Majesty´s "Commissioners appointed to inquire into the law of marriage as relating to the prohibited degrees of affinity," was chiefly to bring before them the weight of what was said or implied by Holy Scripture upon this subject, and to show how those Scriptures had been understood by the whole body of the Christian Church, down to the Council of Trent. And if people could but bring themselves to think what is the weight of the deliberate judgment of the Church, century after century, from the first, they would not treat this argument so lightly as they sometimes allow themselves to do. It was, at an early period, spoken of as a sacred tradition from the Fathers; and those early traditions in the whole Church do express the mind of the Apostles, who had "the mind of Christ." This mind of the Church continued to be expressed in Councils and Fathers, and later by almost all the most thoughtful of the Schoolmen; it was only contravened in an unsatisfactory school, Scotus and certain followers of his, who went so far as to say that "no affinity" (not even with a mother-in-law or daughter-in-law) "was against the law of nature, only against the law of the Church."
