XXVIII. It has seemed to me ridiculous that
any one should make a vow to abstain from swine’s flesh. Be
so good as to teach men to abstain from foolish vows and
promises. Represent the use to be quite indifferent. No
creature of God, received with thanksgiving, is to be
rejected.
1 Tim. iv. 4. The vow is
ridiculous; the abstinence unnecessary.
