LVI.  The intentional homicide, who has afterwards repented, will be excommunicated from the sacrament ἁγιάσμασι.  The Ben. Ed. render Sacramento.  In the Sept. (e.g. Amos vii. 13) the word=sanctuary.  In patristic usage both S. and P. are found for the Lord’s Supper, or the consecrated elements; e.g. ἁγίασμα in Greg. Nyss., Ep. Canon. Can. v.  The plural as in this place “frequentius.”  (Suicer s.v.) for twenty years.  The twenty years will be appointed for him as follows:  for four he ought to weep, standing outside the door of the house of prayer, beseeching the faithful as they enter in to offer prayer in his behalf, and confessing his own sin.  After four years he will be admitted among the hearers, and during five years will go out with them.  During seven years he will go out with the kneelers, μετὰ τῶν ἐν ὑποπτώσει.  The ὑποπίπτοντες or substrati constituted the third and chief station in the oriental system of penance, the first and second being the προσκλαίοντες, flentes or weepers, and the ἀκροώμενος, audientes, or hearers.  In the Western Church it is the substrati who are commonly referred to as being in penitence, and the Latin versions of the Canons of Ancyra by Dionysius Exiguus and Martin of Braga render ὑποπίπτοντες and ὑποπτῶσις by pœnitentis and pœnitentia.  In Basil’s Canon xxii. p. 238, this station is specially styled μετάνοια.  cf. D.C.A. ii. 1593.  “Μετάνοια notat pœnitentiam eorum qui ob delicta sua in ecclesia ἐπιτιμίοις ἐσωφρονίζοντο (Zonaras, Ad. Can. v. Conc. Antioch, p. 327), quique dicebantur οἰ ἐν μετανοιᾳ ὄντες.  Chrysostom, Hom. iii. in Epist. ad Eph. in S. Cœnæ communione clamabat κήρυξ, ὅσοι ἐν μετανοί& 139· ἀπέλθετε πάντες.”  Suicer s.v. praying.  During four years he will only stand with the faithful, and will not take part in the oblation.  On the completion of this period he will be admitted to participation of the sacrament.
