Canon 3
On the prohibition for single clergy to keep strange women at home.
The Great Council resolutely forbade a bishop, presbyter, deacon or any of the clergy to have a woman cohabiting in the house, with the exception of a mother, or a sister, or an aunt, or those persons who are beyond any suspicion.
Greek original
Ἀπηγόρευσε καθόλου ἡ μεγάλη σύνοδος, μήτε ἐπισκόπῳ, μήτε πρεσβυτέρῳ, μήτε διακόνῳ, μήτε ὅλως τινὶ τῶν ἐν κλήρῳ, ἐξεῖναι συνείσακτον ἔχειν, πλὴν εἰ μὴ ἄρα μητέρα, ἢ ἀδελφήν, ἢ θείαν, ἢ ἃ μόνα πρόσωπα πᾶσαν ὑποψίαν διαπέφευγεν.
