On establishing the canonical age for ordination to the subdeaconate – 20 years.
One cannot ordain a subdeacon before the age of 20. If anyone is ordained to any sacred degree before a certain age, let him be deposed.
Greek original
Ὑποδιάκονος μὴ ἦττον τῶν εἴκοσι ἐτῶν χειροτονείσθω· εἰ δέ τις τῶν ἐν οἱᾳοῦν ἱερατικῇ καταστάσει παρὰ τοὺς ὁρισθέντας χειροτονηθείη χρόνους, καθαιρείσθω.
