Правило 11 Феофила Александрийского

Machine translation from the original · Show original
May widows and the poor, and wandering strangers receive all peace, and let no one appropriate church property. . (Ap. 38, 41; IV Ecum. 25, 26; Trul. 35; VII Ecum. 11, 12; Ancir. 15; Gangr. 7, 8; Antioch. 24, 25; Carth. 26, 33; Theophila Alex. 10). This rule is a continuation of the 10th rule of Theophilus. The 10th rule states that the steward must ensure that church income is used for what it should be, and this (11) rule more precisely indicates what church income should specifically be spent on, namely: in addition to the maintenance of the clergy (Ap. 41), for the maintenance of “widows, the poor and wandering strangers.” You might be interested in:
