EVIDENCEFORCELIBACY.

Q.:Infact,Ibelievethatinmany casesimportantteachingsrestmerelyontheflimsiestevidence,

R.:Youareunfortunateintheexampleyouhavechosen,namely,thecelibacyoftheclergy.Forthecelibacy ofpriests,asanobligation,doesnot restdirectlyonanyevidenceinScripture.Itisadisciplinarylawresting ontheauthorityoftheChurch;and thatisanythingbut"flimsy."The authorityoftheChurch,ontheother hand,isdirectlyinculcatedbyScripture,andinthestrongestterms.But thatisbesidethepointforthemoment. Thefactthattheobligationofcelibacy forpriestsrestsontheauthorityofthe Church,andnotdirectlyonScripture, rendersyourappealtoScriptureuseless foryourpurpose.Thatwouldnotbe true,ofcourse,iiScriptureforbade prieststoremainunmarried,Buton yourownadmission,itdoesnotdo that. * * * *

ST.PETER'SWIFE.

Q.:Take,asanexample,yourreply concerningthecelibacyofpriests. YousayofPeterandhiswife,"With. herconsent,hesepartedfromherin ordertodevotehimselfentirelyto Christandtheapostolate."

R.:Thatisso.ButImustaskyou torememberthatIwasnottryingto provefromScripturethatcelibacyis anobligationbindingonallpriests.

AsIremarkedamomentago,theobligationonallpriestshasbeenimposed bytheauthorityoftheChurch,What Iwasprovingisthatcelibacyassuch isnotopposedtotheteachingofScrip-

Q.:ThatPeterseparatedfromhiswife seemstobeamostgratuitousinferencefromthewords,"Behold,we haveleftallandhavefollowedthee."

H:Itisnotagratuitousinferencein thelightofOurLord'sreply,"Every. onethathathlefthouse,orbrethren, orsisters,orfather,ormother,orwife, orchildren,etc.,formyname'ssake." Itisnotaforcedimplicationofthis replytoSt.Petertointerpretitas saying,"Allwhoforsakeallhumanattachmentsasyouhavedonewillhave theirreward?'Moreover,when speakingofmarriageanddivorce, OurLordrepliedtothediscipleswhosaidthat,ifthelawwasto besostrict,itwouldnotbegoodto marry,forthesakeofthekingdomof heaven.AndHeadded,"Hethatcan takeit,lethimtakeit,"ThereHe taughtthatcelibacyfortheloveof GodandforthesakeoftheapostolateinthecauseofHiskingdomwas betterandnoblerthanthestateof marriage,Anditisnotagratuitous inferencethatSt.Petertheverychief oftheApostles,adoptedhimselfthe betterandnoblestaterecommended toalltheApostles.

ST.PAUL'SCLAIM.

Q.:ItisdisprovedbyI.Cor.,IX.,5, whereSt,Paulclaimstherightto leadaboutawifeaswellastheother ApostlesandCephas.

R.:Inthefirstplace,theProtestant BibletranslatestheGreektextwrongly.TheGreekwordyourversion translatesas"wife"shouldread "woman,"Apologetically,manycopies oftheProtestantBibleusedtoprint thisalternaterenderinginthemargin. AndSt.Paul'swords,"aswellasthe otherApostles,"makesitclearthat thegoodChristianwomenaccompanyingthemwerenottheirwives,Grudgingly,theAnglicanwriter,M.F.Sadler,saysofthispassage,"Itisbyno meanscertainthatthewomenwhich otherApostlesledaboutweretheir wives.Theodoretinterpretsitof womenlikethosewhofollowedthe LordandHisdisciples,andministered untothem.BishopWordsworth,who almostinvariablytakestheantiRomanistline,notesthatwenever hearoftheApostlestravellingthrough theworldwithwivesandchildren.If ithadlienso.St.Paulcouldhardly

Q.:Then,too,yourquotation,"I wouldthatallmenwereasmyself, unmarried,"bynomeansexhausts St.Paul'steachingonthesubject.

R.:Ididnotintendtoexhausthis teachingonthesubject, Iintended toshowthattheidealofcelibacywas notopposedtothedoctrineoftheNew Testament,butwasinharmonywith it.Itwasenoughformypurposesto showthatSt.Pauladvocatedandpractisedthatideal.

Q.:Inthatchapterheinsiststhathe isspeakingbypermission,andnotby acommandment. NoCatholicwoulddenythat.

Q.:Whilecelibacyisapprovedand commendedforthosewhohavethe gift,thereisnotasuggestionthat pledgedcelibacyisobligatoryforthe. clergy.
